Abstract:

ABSTRACT Terrorism refers to the use or threat of force or violence against people or property. Bioterrorism is the term used for terroristic activities in which biological substances are used to cause harm to other people. Bioterrorism is a combination of biological warfare and terrorism and due to particular events bioterrorism has received lot of attention recently. A bioterrorist attack releases viruses, bacteria, or other germs to cause illness or death. These biological agents are typically found in nature. But they can sometimes be made more harmful by increasing their ability to cause

Abstract:

The antiterrorism and disaster planning communities often speak of the high potential for bioterrorism and possible potential for radioterrorism, specifically the explosion of a fission device on US soil. Information gained from an epidemiologist’s work in the national and international scene, which inevitably involves Intel regarding the cultures and subcultures being studied, suggest that bioterrorism is far less likely to be a major threat, that has been over-emphasized at the state level due to warnings from Homeland Security, and that Homeland Security itself appears biased toward bioterr

It is imperative that scientists and bio-engineers recognize this issue and urgently establish societal system with self-governance that can deal with this issue properly.

Abstract:

Steve Fuller's article on the events of September 11th raises a number of important questions about the role of sociology in public discussion and debate. This brief response, in taking up this challenge, focuses on the issue of bio-terrorism. In doing so, a balance sheet is provided of the potential threat this poses, drawing both on the history of biological and chemical weapons to date, and the potential epidemics of fear they unleash in the aftermath of September 11th. Medical sociology, it is argued, alongside the sociology of emotions, is particularly well placed to address such issues,

The surveillance began 1 week before the conference, and continued until 1 week after the conference ended. We could not detect any outbreaks during this surveillance.

Introduction: In the medical diagnostics of bacteria, the rapid detection of pathogenic microorganisms from body fluids is one of the most important tasks. The majority of the modern measuring techniques are based on specific labels bound to the bacteria. However, this strategy usually assumes a rather time-consuming procedure involving several steps (e.g., the widely used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay normally consists of 5 consecutive steps). Hence, there is an urgent need for the elaboration of rapid, “label-free” techniques, that are often based on Lab-on-a-chip devices. Aim: In this p

Abstract:

Biological attacks by terrorists may seem more like a plot element in an action film than a realistic threat. The possibility of biological weapons attack could be very remote. Scholars are divergent in their opinions on the plausibility of a biological attack. The U.S. Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the National Intelligence Council stated in 2008 that bio-terrorism is a more likely threat than nuclear terrorism. Researches have revealed that of all weapons of mass destruction, biological weapons constitute the greatest worry. The most likely target for bio-terrorism is a

Abstract:

ABSTRACTWith the focus on bio terrorism and environmental sensing, there is need for development of smart integrated bio-chemical sensors. We investigate Whispering Gallery Mode (WGM) based High Q micro cavity as a biosensor. We integrate the lab-on-a-chip approach with High Q technology to develop highly selective and smart sensors for in-situ detection of aqueous media based agents. We have investigated the ring based micro-cavity structure as a sensor. We identify the detection of agent through the changes observed in the wavelength shift and Q factor as a result of enzyme-substrate interac
