Article Snippet: Given the results presented here (i.e. the numbers of expected test-positives in VRQ genotypes with the Prionics CW as the rapid screening test are double those of expected test-positives in VRQ genotypes with the Bio-Rad ELISA screening test), these countries could have seriously underestimated the extent of infection within VRQ genotypes and hence the ‘classical’ scrapie population, within their respective surveys.

Article Snippet: The early Bio-Rad ELISA screening tests underestimated the prevalence of VRQ scrapie, but detected PrP Sc infection in the, previously designated, ‘resistant’ or ‘low-risk’ genotypes based on studies of clinical scrapie [ 6 , 7 ].
