Nature of the scrapie agent: evidence against a viroid.

R L Ward, D D Porter, J G Stevens.   

Abstract

The postulated viroid nature of scrapie agent was tested. Since the agent could not be recovered after a carefully controlled phenol extraction of infected mouse brains, it is suggested that this agent is not a viroid.
