Molecular strain typing and environmental persistence of ruminant transmissible spongiform encephalopathies
A novel thermolysin digestion method for the molecular strain-typing of ruminant TSEs has been developed which resulted in the clearance of cellular prion protein (PrPc) from healthy sheep or cattle brain homogenates, while digestion of scrapie or BSE infected samples resulted in the generation of t...
