Better prediction of the emergence, spread and evolution of the environmentally transmitted pathogen that causes anthrax is the focus of a National Science Foundation award to the University at ...

The inactivated anthrax produced by Dugway is used in the development of tests to detect the presence of the pathogen as well as equipment to protect against exposure to it.

Anthrax is caused by Bacillus anthracis, a pathogen that causes potentially fatal disease in most mammals, including humans.A study published in PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases reports that a ...

In each case, the scientists and officials involved wrongly concluded that the deadly pathogens had been inactivated and thus were safe to transport elsewhere. One of the incidents, involving mistaken ...
