[QUOTE="Boll Weevil, post: 4708654, member: 10006"] I recall an earlier post that showed 1000s of samples over the recent past returned negative. I wonder if the testing protocol was modified or perhaps the detection method improved over those 3-5 years? Or maybe the prion-load hadn't yet increased within any given animal to a point that the testing would reveal its presence? If it's already present in x% of the population, but the prion-load hasn't increased to a detectable level in given individuals, could the testing be returning false negatives? [/QUOTE]
