Abstract

Multiple-locus variable number of tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) is used to develop an assay for the identification of strains from the Bacillus cereus group most closely related to Bacillus anthracis. A very simple assay is proposed that allows the screening of hundreds of strains from the B. cereus complex, with modest equipment and at a low cost, to eventually fill the gap with B. anthracis and better understand the origin and making of this dangerous pathogen.
