1. Bioterrorismo: capacitar para responder
RESUMO A utilização de agentes biológicos com a finalidade de aterrorizar inimigos surgiu há muitos séculos. Essa ação foi popularizada como bioterrorismo. Ataques bioterroristas são perigosos devido ao envolvimento de diversos fatores, como a forma silenciosa na qual pode ocorrer, o tipo e a forma de transmissão do agente biológico utilizado, depe

2. Early Detection of Bacillus anthracis From Saliva in Anticipation of a Bioterrorism Attack
Abstract Objective: To assess potential for early detection of oral infection by B. anthracis spores for preparedness of a bioterrorism attack. Material and Methods: The laboratory study used saliva with a range of initial anthrax concentrations, to compare detection by direct observation from conventional blood agar culture and by anthrax-specific PCR aft

3. Guidelines for the management of human brucellosis in the State of Paraná, Brazil
Abstract Human brucellosis is a re-emerging disease with the potential for bioterrorism. The number of cases in Brazil has increased; however, the ideal management has not been established. These guidelines are intended for use by clinicians and other health-care workers providing medical care for patients with suspected brucellosis in the State of Paraná.

4. Mapping of the continuous epitopes displayed on the Clostridium perfringens type D epsilon-toxin
Abstract The epsilon toxin, produced by Clostridium perfringens, is responsible for enterotoxemia in ruminants and is a potential bioterrorism agent. In the present study, 15 regions of the toxin were recognized by antibodies present in the serum, with different immunodominance scales, and may be antigen determinants that can be used to formulate subunit vac

5. Proposta de protocolos de segurança para a prevenção, a contenção e a neutralização de agente agressor bioativo em incidentes bioterroristas e estudo por docking molecular do fator letal do Bacillus anthracis (Antraz)
Há séculos agentes infecciosos são utilizados como armas em conflitos bélicos. Em 1972 a Convenção sobre Armas Biológicas proibiu a criação e armazenamento de armas biológicas. No entanto alguns países continuaram a pesquisa e o desenvolvimento dessas armas. Prova desse fato foi o acidente em 1979 em uma fábrica militar na URSS, onde foram disper

6. Proteção do genoma humano e socioambientalismo : aspectos bioéticos e jurídicos
The build of the socio-environment paradigm is resultant from the comprehension that isolated protection is not possible, implying collective care. The human being, as a biodiversity integrant, is supported by his laws, but also by environment laws. The human genome is unique for each individual and distinguishes itself from the others beings of the same spe

7. Bioterrorism: Implications for the Clinical Microbiologist
The specter of bioterrorism has captured the attention of government and military officials, scientists, and the general public. Compared to other sectors of the population, clinical microbiologists are more directly impacted by concerns about bioterrorism. This review focuses on the role envisioned for clinical laboratories in response to a bioterrorist eve

8. Zoonoses Likely to Be Used in Bioterrorism
Bioterrorism is the deliberate release of viruses, bacteria, or other agents used to cause illness or death in people, animals, or plants. Only modest microbiologic skills are needed to produce and effectively use biologic weapons. And biological warfare has afflicted campaigns throughout military history, at times playing an important role in determining th

9. Bioterrorism Surveillance and Privacy: Intersection of HIPAA, the Common Rule, and Public Health Law
The threat of bioterrorism in the wake of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks cannot be ignored. Syndromic surveillance, the practice of electronically monitoring and reporting real-time medical data to proactively identify unusual disease patterns, highlights the conflict between safeguarding public health while protecting individual privacy.

10. Identifying Sources of Human Exposure to Plague
Yersinia pestis, the etiologic agent of plague, has shaped the course of human history, killing millions of people in three major pandemics. This bacterium is still endemic in parts of Asia, Africa, and the Americas, where it poses a natural disease threat to human populations. Y. pestis has also recently received attention as a possible bioterrorism agent.

11. Roundtable on Bioterrorism Detection: Information System–based Surveillance
During the 2001 AMIA Annual Symposium, the Anesthesia, Critical Care, and Emergency Medicine Working Group hosted the Roundtable on Bioterrorism Detection. Sixty-four people attended the roundtable discussion, during which several researchers discussed public health surveillance systems designed to enhance early detection of bioterrorism events. These system
