The invention provides a method for producing prion protein having an aggregated conformation by contacting native conformation prion protein with aggregated conformation prion protein in a liquid preparation and subjecting this to at least one cycle or to a number of cycles of application of shear-force for fragmenting aggregates of prion protein, wherein the shear-force applied is precisely controlled. In addition to this process for amplification of aggregated state prion protein from native conformation prion protein, the invention relates to the aggregated state prion protein obtained by the amplification process, which aggregated state prion protein has one conformation, which is e.g. identical within one batch and reproducible between batches, e.g. as detectable by proteinase resistance in a Western blot.

Various embodiments herein pertain to apparatus and methods that utilize the water and existing chemicals to generate a foam. The foam can be introduced at that gas-path entrance of the equipment, where it contacts the stages and internal surfaces, to contact, scrub, carry, and remove fouling away from equipment to restore performance. Some embodiments include mixing gas with liquid to create a supply of foam, streaming the foam into a gas turbine engine installed on an airplane, rotating the spools of the engine while streaming, and re-rotating the spools of the engine after a spool has stopped. In yet other embodiments there is a method that includes streaming the foam into an engine installed on an airplane, quantifying an improvement to a family of engines achievable by foam washing, operating a specific engine, determining that the specific engine should be washed, and scheduling a foam washing of the specific engine.
