-Caveat Lector- http://www.channelnewsasia.com/articles/2001/03/30/australasia55558.htm 30 March 2001 Australian scientists develop sensor for germ warfare Australian scientists have developed a sensor that could revolutionise the fight against the threat of germ warfare. Soldiers will be able to detect biological warfare agents as soon as they get into the air. The wars of the future will not be fought by guns and tanks alone. The weapon of choice could be much smaller and more subtle - but no less deadly: it is the bacterial spore that can lead to agonizing death. The answer, say scientists in Australia, is a tiny handheld sensor by which soldiers can detect biological warfare agents such as anthrax in the air. Its secret is nanotechnology - at the cutting edge of research. "If one has an early warning of people being infected by these organisms, you have a chance in these very early stages of actually being able to take remedial action. If you allow it to run for a few days, you've got no chance of being able to reverse the effect," said Australian scientist Dr Bruce Cornell. The technology could have far reaching implications. Dr Cornell says it could be used to clean up air pollution and even save lives in emergency rooms. The small sensor will enable doctors to make a diagnosis from body fluids within minutes instead of hours. The device is expected to be in use in hospitals in Australia and the US from next year. ================================================================= Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: *Michael Spitzer* <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends ================================================================= <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
