Biodefense Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends And Forecast 2015 - 2023
Biodefense is a measure to combat the potential effects of bioterrorism that utilizes biological agents, or deploys biological weaponry. Bioterrorism is a deliberate release of biological agents such as bacteria, virus, germs or toxins which may be in natural or human modified form, in order to make them more virulent, or to enhance their potential to cause infection, or to make them drug resistant. These biological agents can be transmittedthrough water, air, food or from person to person.Biodefense is usually utilized in two ways, either as a defense against an attack on a military target or civil population. Defense against an attack on acivilian is largely based on the detection and methods by which casualties and loss of water or food can be minimized. Biodefense against an attack on military targets is concerned with preparing military personnelready to respond to bioterrorism.

Biological agents are classified into three categories on the basis of virulence as given below:
Category A,(high death rate, contagious and high impact on people)
Anthrax,botulism,smallpox, tularemia,bubonic plague, ebola
Category B(moderately easy to spread and low mortality rate)
Brucellosis,glanders, typhus, melioidosis
Category C(easily produced ,easily available,easily disseminateand high mortality rate)
Hantavirus, SARS, Nipah Virus, HIV/AIDS and H1N1 virus
Techniques used for commercial detection and identification of biological threat agents include:
Manual Biochemical Tests
Automated Biochemical Tests
Immunological Detection Devices
Solid-support platforms
BV technology
Bio-Detector
DELFIA
Lateral flow platforms
Nucleic Acid Detection via Quantitative PCR
Q-PCRthermocycler platforms
PCR reagent kits for biothreat agents...
