Abstract excerpt
It is currently believed that primary transmission of classical scrapie to wild-type mice is inefficient and characterized by low attack rates and variable incubation periods and lesion profiles. Consequently, strain characterization of classical scrapie in these mice relies on subpassage. The aim of this study was to perform a retrospective analysis of lesion profiles and immunohistochemistry patterns after...
