I am interested in the use of mycotoxines in biological warfare. Especially, some info on mycotoxines obtained from the 'fusarium-family'. Alos, some general info would be appreciated. How difficult is it to obtain these substances, what laws prohibit selling these etc. etc. I need this info for an article concerning the attempts of the Iran Government to buy the raw materials for producing these mycotoxines. Very recently they tried this in the Netherlands. They also tried to buy in Canada. Does somebody knows something of these attempts. Any info concerning this subject would be highly appreciated. Since I am not a member of your newsgroup, would it be possible to send all reactions to: KSEPYML@TUDVRA.TUDELFT.NL or KSEPYML@HDETUD51.BITNET Regards: Xander.
