Towards further reduction and replacement of animal bioassays in prion research by cell and protein misfolding cyclic amplification assays
Published in Laboratory animals (London) (01-04-2013)“…Laboratory animals have long since been used extensively in bioassays for prions in order to quantify, usually in terms of median infective doses [ID50], how…”
