From Times Wire Reports
A 15-city test of a new anthrax detection system at the Postal Service will begin today.
The test of the newly developed Biohazard Detection System will continue for four weeks, the agency said.
The system uses rapid DNA testing to detect germs. It was developed in the wake of the anthrax-by-mail attacks in the fall of 2001.
