This facility used only mock equipment and was non-functional explained that DR. BRUCE\ IV , United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID), in the past, has sent seed stock on two to three occasions. confirmed through viewing shipping records from 1992 that the first transfer of AMES to Dugway was in October, 1992. This material was transferred in two 15mL polypropylene screw capped tubes. confirmed through viewing shipping records from 1997 at second transfer from USAMRIID to Dugway was in March, 1997. This transfer included four one (1)mL vials of Ames spores. [| described two major Dugway growth projects aside from the 1997 Dugway-USAMRIID project that took place in the 1990's as the Chemical Biological Mass Spectrometer (CBMS) project and the Battelle, High Temperature Incendiary project. The CBMS project took place approximately from 1994- 1996, used a host of different strains of Ba (Zimbabwe, Vollum, Sterne, and Ames) as well as Yersinia pestis and Francisella tularensis. In the case of Ba, Casein Acid Digest (CAD) and Leighton-Doi (media) was used to grow (in fermentors) and harvest cells from log phase as well as spores from stationary phas These products were then sent to USAMRIID as’ a concentrated slurry and irradiated by either Dugway upon receipt of irradiated spdres lyophilized (dried) the spores. [ —Lapes not rec irradiated AMES for this project identified as the turned over to by In viewing various scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images related to this CBMS project |__| oxpiained thet the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for this CBMS project required for quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) measures in the form of SEM images from each growth batch be taken. The Battelle, High Temperature Incendiary Project utilized only the Vollum strain of Ba. Spores from this proj were acetone dried. This method was taught toL__|by in 1998.
