Abstract

Bacillus anthracis Control Genetic aspects Management Physiological aspects Polymerase chain reaction Public health Usage
The limit of detection of methods for Bacillus anthracis which is characterized as either an instrument limit of detection or an environmental limit of detection is reviewed. The quantification of the risk posed by current limitations in the knowledge of detection method should be considered when methods in environmental monitoring and cleanup strategies are employed.
