In vitro amplification of prions from deer and other animal species through the protein misfolding cyclic amplification (PMCA) technique
An updated protocol to replicate CWD prions by means of the PMCA technology in animal-derived samples and environmental fomites is described, and newly optimized PMCA protocols to identify CWD-prions in non-cervid, sympatric hosts are described.
