The curve depicts densities of PrP^sc bands in the <i>Scrapie Associated Fibrils</i> (<i>S.A.F.</i>)<i>/O.I.E. Immunoblot</i> plotted against PrP^sc content in the respective tissue homogenates.

<p>Numbers on the right of each density data point correspond to the numbers in the blot photo (inset). <i>R</i>² = 0.999.</p

A performance summary of both rapid and confirmatory tests.

<p>White bars represent the test's detection limitations, as established by the manufacturer. Dotted bars represent our determined theoretical limit of detection for each test, where the corresponding positive tissue dilution yielded a result no different from true negative tissue. Confirmatory tests are above the dashed line. Rapid-tests are below the dashed line.</p

The curves depict densities of PrP^sc bands (diglycosylated (Digly), monoglycosylated (Monogly), unglycosylated (Ungly)) in the Prionics®-<i>Check WESTERN</i>™ western blot.

<p>Numbers on the right of each density data point correspond to the numbers in the blot photo (inset). Only odd numbered data points appear in the blot photo. Each label (Digly, Monogly, Ungly) in the inset photo appears to the left of the band it describes. Inset text and arrows indicate detection limitations. <i>R</i>²: Digly = 0.9870; Monogly = 0.9841; Ungly = 0.9635.</p
