DEFENDING THE U.S. AIR TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM AGAINST CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL THREATS... [Pg.1]

Examples of Chemical and Biological Threat Agents of Concern, 9 2-2 Toxicities of Lethal Gases, 9... [Pg.11]

Determine unique air transportation requirements for dealing with chemical/biological threats and coordinate closely with other agencies that are active in the chemical/biological threats area to ensure that these requirements are given visibility in their programs. [Pg.15]

As suggested by the wording of the topic of this report in the list above, this study is concerned not only with technologies for detecting the presence of chemical or biological threat agents in the air transportation context, but also with... [Pg.19]

CURRENT GOVERNMENT RESPONSE TO THE CHEMICAL/BIOLOGICAL THREAT... [Pg.37]

The Department of Homeland Security has funded preliminary studies to elaborate specific chemical/biological threat vectors and to increase understanding of airflows in several terminals and boarding areas of San Francisco International Airport and Albuquerque Airport. It has also conducted an exercise in which the many airport decision makers (e.g., in areas of operations, security, fire control and prevention, public health and safety, and environmental is-... [Pg.40]

Peptide microsequencing has proved to be a powerful approach to identify protein components of mixtures,53-55,61 and has been applied to extracted proteins as a method to identify biological threats.56,83-85 Commercial and internet accessible search engines and databases provide adequate bioinformatics support to use sequence information produced by the mass spectrometer (e.g., http //www.matrixscience.com http //prospector.ucsf.edu/ ucsfhtml4.0/mstagfd.htm http //prowl.rockefeller.edu/). [Pg.265]

With the focus on biological threats shifting from nations to terrorist organizations, the type of potential agents that might be employed has... [Pg.446]

Modelling and simulation are increasingly important instruments and these approaches have an enormous impact in the area of passive defence. Traditionally, the assessment of the chemical threat using the concept of challenge levels has been the primary focus. As the threat picture is changing, assessment of biological threats as well as threats exerted by (industrial) toxic compounds (including releases other than attack) have become important issues as well. [Pg.60]
