                 Diagnosis



                     Laboratory confirmation of the last three agents depends

            heavily on serological testing requiring acute and convalescent

            sera. Anthrax may often be diagnosed by routine cultures of

            blood, pleural fluid and CSF and its toxin detected by serum

            immur.oassays which can be done in field-deployed laboratories.
