Composite sampling of a Bacillus anthracis surrogate with cellulose sponge surface samplers from a nonporous surface.

A series of experiments was conducted to explore the utility of composite-based collection of surface samples for the detection of a Bacillus anthracis surrogate using cellulose sponge samplers on a nonporous stainless steel surface. Two composite-based collection approaches were evaluated over a su...
