    Abstract

    Bacillus anthracis, Francicella tularensis, Yersinia pestis, Burkholderia pseudomallei and Brucella melitensis are the bacteria most often mentioned in connection with possible biological terrorist acts. It is known that these microorganisms can be cultured and weaponised for such a purpose. This survey provides examples of the use of diagnostic methods for those microorganisms, further detailed in relation to establishing a national center for biological preparedness in Denmark.
