Biological insecticides

– includes

Bacillus thuringiensis

subspecies that are widely

262

used in agriculture. It is acknowledged that this organism is a near-neighbor of

263

B

.

anthracis

and has been included in the BA exclusivity panel. Furthermore, it is

264

not closely related to

Y. pestis

and

F. tularensis

. However, strains of

B. thuringiensis

265

present in commercially available insecticides have been extensively used in hoaxes

266

and are likely to be harvested in air collectors. For these reasons, it should be used

267

to assess the specificity of these threat assays.
