Preparation of soil bound HY TME, DY TME^a, and elk CWD^a PrP^Sc.

Abstract

<p>^a SCL bound DY TME and elk CWD PrP^Sc were prepared with the same soil to brain ratio and in the same condition as SCL bound HY TME. HY TME was also used for animal bioassay</p><p>^b BH, 10% brain homogenate.</p><p>^c SiO_2-HA, SiO_2-humic acid.</p><p>^d The amount of samples used for PMCA was expressed as weight of soil—equivalent volume of soil solution.</p><p>^e Due to the performance challenge, PMCA substrate was added to the soil pellets of weight as indicated in the table.</p><p>Preparation of soil bound HY TME, DY TME<a href="http://www.plospathogens.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.ppat.1004638#t001fn001" target="_blank">^a</a>, and elk CWD<a href="http://www.plospathogens.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.ppat.1004638#t001fn001" target="_blank">^a</a> PrP^Sc.</p
