Electrochemical biosensor for detection of chronic wasting disease
Summary: This invention is a microelectrochemical sensing device that detects the agent of chronic wasting disease. Chronic wasting disease is a prion disease, caused by a misfolded prion protein (PrPSc). Mammals normally express the healthy prion protein (PrPC). The disease associated form (PrPSc) has the same nucleic acid sequence - making accurate...
