Can potential hazard of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease infectivity be reduced in the production of human growth hormone? Inactivation experiments with the 263K strain of scrapie. Rapid communication.

M Pocchiari1, G Macchi, S Peano, A Conz.   

Abstract

Scrapie infectivity is reduced 5-6 logs following filtration through 100,000 MW cut-off filter plus overnight treatment with 6 M urea. These steps, applied to purified human Growth Hormone (hGH), increase the margin of safety of hGH.
