RT Quick and Protein Misfolding Cyclic Amplification for Parkinson's Disease
Seed amplification assays mimic the misfolding cascade that we were speaking about for alpha-synuclein. Aggregation process can be monitored in real time by measuring fluorescence of a particular dye named the thioflavinti. The result in fluorescence trace can be analyzed to determine the presence of pathological aggregates present in the biological matrix and the exam.
