MeSH headings : Bacillus / chemistry; Bacillus / growth & development; Biodegradation, Environmental; Biological Warfare Agents; Bioreactors / microbiology; Colony Count, Microbial; Construction Materials; Polymerase Chain Reaction; Refuse Disposal; Serratia marcescens / chemistry; Serratia marcescens / growth & development; Waste Products / analysis; Water Movements; Water Pollutants / analysis; Water Pollutants / chemistry
topics (OpenAlex): Bacillus and Francisella bacterial research; Bacterial biofilms and quorum sensing; Microbial bioremediation and biosurfactants
TL;DR: Results suggest that significant fractions of the spiked surrogates were strongly attached to SBD, and these results suggest that the suitability of landfills for the disposal of building decontamination residue (BDR) following a bioterrorist attack on a building is evaluated.
