In 1993, the Aum Shinrikyo cult aerosolized Bacillus anthracis spores over Kameido, Japan. Spore samples were obtained from the release site, cultured, and characterized by molecular genetic typing. The isolates were consistent with strain Sterne 34F2, which is used in Japan for animal prophylaxis against anthrax.
1993年,奥姆真理教在日本龟户喷洒炭疽芽孢杆菌孢子。从释放地点采集孢子样本,进行培养,并通过分子基因分型进行特征鉴定。分离出的菌株与斯特恩34F2菌株一致,该菌株在日本用于动物炭疽预防。
