- XorNot 5y agoApparently not: I was thinking glutaraldehyde which is used for cleaning in hospitals but reading up the advice for prions is explicitly opposed to cross-linking agents. Which makes sense I guess but it's also scary.
- Red_Leaves_Flyy 5y agoYou raised my hopes and dashed them exquisitely. Until we have better, cheaper, and less error prone methods of remediating prion diseases they're the #1 fear on my biological apocalypse list.
