The yeast reference material was used in a functional field exercise for first responders in a nonpowdered form. The material challenged the entire detection workflow, from sample to answer, and enabled participants to demonstrate their ability to detect a biological material in the field with minimal risk. The field exercise was led by Captain Bryon Marsh (retired, Georgia National Guard 4th Civil Support Team) at Guardian Centers in Perry, Georgia. (Courtesy of NIST by N. Lin)
