Pyrosequencing Bacillus anthracis [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005 Pyrosequencing technology is a sequencing method that screens DNA nucleotide incorporation in real time. A set of coupled enzymatic reactions, together with bioluminescence, detects incorporated nucleotides in the form of light pulses, which produces a ...

Inactivation of Bacillus anthracis Spores
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 After the intentional release of Bacillus anthracis through the U.S. Postal Service in the fall of 2001, many environments were contaminated with B. anthracis spores, and frequent inquiries were made regarding the science of destroying these spores.

TaqMan Assays for Simultaneous Detection of Bacillus anthracis and Bacillus cereus biovar anthracis [PDF]
Pathogens, 2020 Anthrax is a worldwide zoonotic disease caused by the spore-forming bacterium Bacillus anthracis. Primarily a disease of herbivores, human infections often result from direct contact with contaminated animal products (cutaneous and inhalational anthrax ...

Nursing, 2003 The events of 11 September 2001 and the subsequent anthrax outbreaks have shown that the West needs to be prepared for an increasing number of terrorist attacks, which may include the use of biological warfare. Bacillus anthracis has long been considered a potential biological warfare agent, and this review will discuss the history of its use as such ...

The structure of Rph, an exoribonuclease from Bacillus anthracis, at 1.7 angstrom resolution [PDF]
, 2008 Maturation of tRNA precursors into functional tRNA molecules requires trimming of the primary transcript at both the 5' and 3' ends. Cleavage of nucleotides from the 3' stem of tRNA precursors, releasing nucleotide diphosphates, is accomplished in ...

The Antigen of Bacillus Anthracis [PDF]
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1919 It having been shown in previous articles1 that the antigens of many bacteria and cells consist of pure fats, it seemed advisable to inquire whether a spore-bearing organism such as B. anthracis would yield a similar antigen. For this purpose there was selected a laboratory strain of anthrax bacillus, and a strain sent me from the Hygienic Laboratory ...

Anthrax, but Not Bacillus anthracis?
PLoS Pathogens, 2006 Bacillus anthracis, the etiologic agent of anthrax, is a close relative of B. cereus, a soil organism and known opportunistic pathogen that causes a variety of human infections [1]. B. anthracis is very similar to B. cereus and B. thuringiensis except that all confirmed samples of B. anthracis suggest that it is a monophyletic clone derived from the B.
