Anthrax becomes part of the social lexicon.

Research included laboratory scale experiments related to the drying of anthrax.

Many workers who deal with wool and animal hides are routinely exposed to low levels of anthrax spores, but most exposure levels are not sufficient to develop anthrax infections.

The production of anthrax at Al Hakam started later, in 1990.

On May 31, 1881 all of the sheep were exposed to anthrax.

French scientist Louis Pasteur developed the first effective vaccine for anthrax in 1881.

The Soviet Union created and stored 100 to 200 tons of anthrax spores at Kantubek on Vozrozhdeniya Island.

I want you to take some anthrax (Laughter) and I want you to put that in the paper airplane.

Anthrax, designated at the time as Agent N, was also investigated by the Allies in the 1940s.

Clearing the Senate office building of anthrax spores cost 27 million, according to the Government Accountability Office.

Some wildlife workers have experimented with covering fresh anthrax carcasses with shadecloth and heavy objects.

Using the catalyst method, a complete destruction of all anthrax spores can be achieved in under 30 minutes.

Damage caused by the anthrax spores and bacilli to the central chest cavity can cause chest pain and difficulty breathing.

In addition, in 2003, bombs filled with chemically inactivated Bacillus anthracis in liquid form were also excavated and sampled.

Most of the spending in the Bush administration has actually been more related to the anthrax results and bio terrorism threat.

And once you've folded it into a paper airplane, I want you to take some anthrax and I want you to put that in the paper airplane.

It will be easy for anybody to go ahead and print their own bio virus, enhanced versions of ebola or anthrax, weaponized flu.

Workers who are exposed to dead animals and animal products are at the highest risk, especially in countries where anthrax is more common.

Anthrax in livestock grazing on open range where they mix with wild animals still occasionally occurs in the United States and elsewhere.

However, anthrax vegetative bacteria that escape the body via oozing blood or through the opening of the carcass may form hardy spores.

A blood sample should then be collected and sealed in a container and analyzed in an approved laboratory to ascertain if anthrax is the cause of death.

Production of botulinum toxin and anthrax began with the use of bench top fermenters, and experimentation commenced using a range of animals to study inhalation and other exposure routes and effects.

The remnants of biological munitions which Iraq declared had been filled with Bacillus anthracis, botulinum toxin and aflatoxin were provided to the inspectors for verification.

In addition, Iraq provided the locations where the unilateral destruction of bulk agents, including Bacillus anthracis, botulinum toxin, Clostridium perfringens and aflatoxin, had taken place.

In response to the anthrax attacks of October 2001, the United States Postal Service (USPS) installed biodetection systems (BDSs) in their large scale mail cancellation facilities.

In 1986, the US government was allowed to investigate the incident, and concluded the exposure was from aerosol anthrax from a military weapons facility.

In addition, sampling and analysis of the fragments of biological munitions unilaterally destroyed by Iraq revealed the presence of DNA fragments of Bacillus anthracis and Clostridium botulinum.

The last fatal case of natural inhalational anthrax in the United States occurred in California in 1976, when a home weaver died after working with infected wool imported from Pakistan.

Anthrax was first tested as a biological warfare agent by Unit 731 of the Japanese Kwantung Army in Manchuria during the 1930s some of this testing involved intentional infection of prisoners of war, thousands of whom died.

The United States led Iraq Survey Group searching for Iraqi weapons of mass destruction made similar findings, with the addition of statements on the destruction of anthrax near a presidential palace at Radwaniyah in Baghdad, in 1991.

If anthrax spore were preserved and stored in optimal conditions, it could have been viable for many years, leaving the possibility that, with improvements in Iraq's spray drying capabilities after 1992, the bulk agent could have been dried.

Often this happens because the usable chemical energy is so deep into the center that air (specifically oxygen) does not reach it, therefore not causing combustion (carbon based fuel O2 CO2 H2O C other chemicals involved).

In 1996, United Nations inspectors took samples from Al Hakam disposal and dump sites. Analysis of those samples indicated that certain areas of the site did contain elevated levels of Bacillus anthracis spores.

The objective of the anthrax attacks in the United States in October 2001 was also not to cause mass destruction but to mount a series of symbolic attacks against individuals representing the media and centres of power.

Following Iraq's admission in 1995 of the weaponization of Al Hussein warheads with biological warfare agent and their later unilateral destruction in 1991, inspectors sampled warhead fragments and obtained samples found to be positive for the DNA of Bacillus anthracis.
