One of the critical points in a bioterrorist incident is the early detection and identification of these agents. In this sense, it is essential to perform appropriate procedures for sampling, storage, transportation and custody of them until the reference laboratory.

This paper shows the preparation and development of a training exercise of Reconnaissance teams (RECO) and Sampling and Identification of Biological, Chemical and Radiological Agents teams (SIBCRA) from NBC Defense Regiment Valencia I.
Results:
NBQ samples are obtained and the efficiency of the operations, sampling, data transmission and general coordination of the exercise is evaluated.
Keywords : Biological Weapons; RECO; SIBCRA; NBC Operating Units.
