You Can’t B. cereus – A Review of Bacillus cereus Strains That Cause Anthrax-Like Disease
Emerging strains of Bacillus cereus, traditionally considered a self-limiting foodborne pathogen, have been associated with anthrax-like disease in mammals, including humans. The strains have emerged by divergent evolution and, as exchange of genetic material in the Bacillus genus occurs naturally,...
