摘要：
Methyl bromide (MB), an agricultural fumigant used in the United States, is capable of reducing or eliminating Bacillus anthracis spores. In the event of a bioterrorist attack, MB might serve as an excellent decontaminating agent because it leaves no residue and does not damage furnishings and commodities.
