08-15-2021-0109 - Protein misfolding cyclic amplification

 Protein misfolding cyclic amplification (PMCA) is an amplification technique (conceptually like PCR but not involving nucleotides) to multiply misfolded prions originally developed by Soto and colleagues.[1] It is a test for spongiform encephalopathies like CWD[2] or BSE.
