Vaccines against Francisella tularensis.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences - 1 Jun 2007

Wayne Conlan J, Oyston Petra C F

Abstract excerpt

Francisella tularensis is one of the most pathogenic pathogens known, especially when disseminated as a small particle aerosol. Because of this, it was developed into a biological warfare agent by several states during the 20th century. Nowadays, concerns remain about the potential of this pathogen to cause widespread disease, tularemia, in the hands of terrorists. This has resurrected interest in methods to...
