Evaluation of Analytical Methods for the Detection of Bacillus Anthracis Spores: Compatibility with Real-World Samples Collected from Outdoor and Subway Surfaces
(PUBLISHED REPORT) [Published : Aug 20, 2019]
This effort sought to assess the impact of potential real-world interferents (RWIs) present in Sponge-Stick and Vacuum Cassettes (VCF) samples on current culture and molecular analysis methods. Having an assessment of the impact, if any, will help EPA understand limitations of th...
PROTOCOL FOR DETECTION OF FRANCISELLA TULARENSIS IN ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLES DURING THE REMEDIATION PHASE OF A TULAREMIA INCIDENT
(PUBLISHED REPORT) [Published : Sep 01, 2019]
Francisella tularensis, the bacterium that causes Tularemia infection, is a high-priority bioterrorism agent. There is no step‐by‐step analytical protocol for detection of Francisella tularensis in environmental samples that can be used by the EPA’s Environmental Response Laborat...
SAMPLE ANALYSIS OF NATIVE AIR FILTERS FOR CHARACTERIZATION AND EXTENT MAPPING OF BIOLOGICAL INCIDENTS
(PUBLISHED REPORT) [Published : Aug 30, 2019]
Following a biological contamination incident, the spatial extent of the contamination should be determined using established sampling and analytical methods such as culture or RV-PCR. A previous study demonstrated that a sampling strategy involving native air samplers could be i...
