Plasminogen-based capture combined with amplification technology for the detection of PrP(TSE) in the pre-clinical phase of infection.
<h4>Background</h4>Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) is a neurodegenerative infectious disorder, characterized by a prominent accumulation of pathological isoforms of the prion protein (PrP(TSE)) in the brain and lymphoid tissues. Since the publication in the United Kingdom of fou...
