Biological threat detection via host gene expression profiling.

Abstract excerpt

With the increased threat posed by biological weapons, detection techniques for biothreat pathogens are critically needed to monitor and assess the severity of the illness once exposure has occurred. Current approaches for detecting biological threats are either time-consuming or highly specific but provide little information regarding pathogenicity. Genotyping of pathogens by PCR provides a fast and definitive...
