A variety of methods have been established in order to optimize the accessibility of DNA originating from Bacillus anthracis cells and endospores to facilitate highly sensitive molecular diagnostics. However, most endospore lysis techniques have not been evaluated in respect to their quantitative proficiencies. Here, we started by systematically assessing the ... More
