Amyloid-beta peptide degradation in cell cultures by mycoplasma contaminants
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Cell cultures have become an indispensable tool in Alzheimer's disease research for studying amyloid-β (Aβ) metabolism. It is estimated that up to 35% of cell cultures in current use are infected with various mycoplasma species....
