$\beta\!-\!Amyloid\>(A\beta)$acquires toxicity by self-aggregation. To identify and characterize the toxic form(s) of Aβ aggregates, we examined in vitro aggregation conditions by using large quantities of homogenous, chemically synthesized Aβ1-40peptide. We found that slow rotation of Aβ1-40solution reproducibly gave self-aggregated Aβ1-40containi...
