ABSTRACT:
A method for detecting in a human test subject the presence of a harmful level of a chemical-biological agent, the method including the steps of administering a given dose of a predetermined chemical-biological agent to a control subject; extracting control EMG signals from the control subject; processing the control EMG signals to determine given parameters thereof; and storing data obtained in the processing step. The above steps are repeated for a plurality of other control subjects and the resultant data are used to determine the given dose of the predetermined chemical-biological agent a standard range of the given parameters. All of the above steps are repeated with each of a plurality of different sized chemical-biological doses of the predetermined chemical-biological agent and all resultant data are used to determine a normative range of the given parameters for each of the plurality of different sized chemical-biological doses. After establishing the normative ranges, EMG test signals are extracted from the human test subject and processed to determine the given parameters which then are compared to the data normative to determine the concentration in the test subject of the predetermined chemical-biological agent.
