Scrapie infectivity, fibrils and low molecular weight protein
The development of a short incubation model of scrapie (strain 263K), in golden hamsters 1,2 , has added impetus to the purification of the infectious agent. Our own attempts 3 have been based on methods pioneered by Millson 4,5 and developed by Prusiner 6,7 . We present here results indicating that...
