ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides monoclonal antibodies which are highly specific for Bacillus spores. Also provided are peptides derived from those monoclonal antibodies. Both the antibodies and peptides are highly specific and can discriminate between spores of potentially lethal organisms such asBacillus anthracisand other harmless but closely related bacilli and provide a very powerful tool in the construction of detection instruments as counter measures.
