Figure 8. — Detection of PrP^Sc in the brains of hamsters from the first and second passage (data from the first reconstitution experiment). (A) Brain PrP^Sc profile of infected animals from first reconstitution experiment. Inocula 9 (lane 3), 8.1 (lane 4; 151 dpi) and 8.2 (lane 5; 246 dpi). Lane 1: Positive control from 263K scrapie hamster; lane 2: control sample from healthy hamster. (B) Brain PrP^Sc profile of infected animals from first reconstitution experiment. Inocula 2* (lane 3; environmentally contaminated animal), 6 (lane 4), 7 (lane 5), 11 (lane 6) and 15 (lane 7). Positive control from 263K scrapie hamster; lane 2: control sample from healthy hamster. A selection of animals that died of causes not related to scrapie or deliberate infection are represented here. (C) First passage: WB profile of 2 distinct hamsters inoculated with BH of animal 8.1 (lanes 3 and 4); WB profile of 2 distinct hamsters inoculated with BH of animal 8.2 (lanes 5 and 6).
