The precautions come after French Prime Minister Manuel Valls warned jihadis could use chemical and biological weapons in an assault against France.
Fears of biological warfare were raised after 12 protective suits used to protect people from chemical products and contaminative viruses such as Ebola were stolen from a Parisian hospital.
More than 30 protective boots made of chemical-resistant polyethylene along with gloves and anti-bacterial masks have also disappeared.
A spokesman for Necker hospital in southwest Paris said: “The disappearance of this limited amount of equipment was noticed on Wednesday and a complaint has been filed.”
The revelation comes as Belgian capital Brussels heightened its terror alert to the maximum level amid fears of a Paris-style attack.
Dangerous chemicals were also discovered among “an arsenal” of weapons in a flat that was raided today in Brussels district Molenbeek.
