don't know their location (I ran across it once using Gopher). I don't
know what their policy on getting pathogens though and I assume that you
will have to get special permits for sending something like that in
international mail. I'll bet there is something similar to ATCC in Japan.>
ATCC's website is at http://www.atcc.org. It has all kinds of information
pertaining to regulations and forms required for purchasing and sending
pathogenic microorganisms through the mail in addition to a searchable
database on specific organisms and prices for each one.
