PRIONS

Scientists create prion with bacteria by:

Alzheimer's is caused by prions

Alzheimer's and CJD is same prion disease

PRIONS IN COMPOSTING
Postings of Helane Shields to Composting Council discussion group in 2006 on issue of infectious human
and animal prions in both Class A and Class B sewage sludge biosolids, with particular regard to the fact
that EPA pathogen reduction measures under Part 503 do NOT inactivate prions . . . . .

Helane Shields Email to US EPA and WEF - human and animal prions in Class A sewage sludge biosolids
compost which is promoted for home use as pathogen free

PRIONS” ARE PATHOGENS -- The Prion Diseases

Prions in intestines and feces

"Human prions in public sewers, autopsies, etc."

"Human prions in public sewers, embalmers, funeral directors, etc. "

Persistence of Pathogenic Prion Protein during Simulated Wastewater Treatment Processes
Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs, prion diseases) are a class of fatal neurodegenerative diseases
affecting a variety of mammalian species including humans. A misfolded form of the prion protein (PrPTSE) is the major,
if not sole, component of the infectious agent. Prions are highly resistant to degradation and to many disinfection
procedures suggesting that, if prions enter wastewater treatment systems through sewers and/or septic systems (e.g.,
from slaughterhouses, necropsy laboratories, rural meat processors, private game dressing) or through leachate from
landfills that have received TSE-contaminated material, prions could survive conventional wastewater treatment.
