Re: anthrax and bentonite. I ran a patent search today on USPTO.gov - there are numerous patents on using bentonite in the commercial production of bacillus spores. Both bentonite and surfactants, which have also been reported.

There are a several bacilli which have commercial uses as pesticides, e.g., milky spore, which kills Japanese beetles, and BT (bacillus thuringiensis) which kills gypsy moths. There are patents for producing both with bentonite.

If you run a google search using as the search terms

bacillus bentonite spores

you will find literature that tells how to do it. It's quite common.
