Abstract
Better safe than sorry: A combined analytical procedure consisting of Raman spectroscopy and chemometrics can be used to test for anthrax endospores in environmental samples. Time-consuming enrichment steps are not required and low levels of anthrax endospores in household substances like baking powder can be detected within 3h and discriminated against other nonpathogenic Bacillus species with typing accuracies of up to 99 %.
