Korea has developed the world's first recombinant protein-based anthrax vaccine, a major step toward self-sufficiency that ...

Yet there are similarities. The current anthrax situation involving Dugway shipping dozens of live anthrax samples that were supposed to be dead and, as in 2007, involves failures of the current ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

The anthrax pathogen can survive in the soil for decades in the form of spores. Grazing livestock, such as cows or sheep, ingest the spores and become infected with anthrax.

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 ...

Every pathogen has its primary host. For anthrax, that’s the zebra. In the African savannah, zebras suffer disproportionately from anthrax. For decades, scientists scratched their heads over why ...
