In a recent paper, Merkurjev showed that for a smooth proper variety X over a field k, the functor M* ↦ A0(X, M0) from cycle modules to abelian groups is corepresented by a cycle module constructed on the Chow group of 0-cycles of X. We show that if “proper” is relaxed, the result still holds by replacing the Chow group of 0-cycles by the 0-th Suslin homology group of X.
