Incidence of infection in Prnp ARR/ARR sheep following experimental inoculation with or natural exposure to classical scrapie. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The prion protein gene (Prnp) is highly influential in determining risk and susceptibility of sheep exposed to classical scrapie. Sheep homozygous for alanine at codon 136 and arginine at codons 154 and 171 (ARR/ARR) of the Prnp gene are historically ...

Integration of Field Observations With Forward and Inverse Modeling for Tsunami Reconstructions Along the Fjord‐Dominated Coastlines of Northern Cascadia

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Forward and inverse modeling techniques are often applied to paleotsunamis to reconstruct inundation parameters. The accuracy of both types of models can be influenced by geomorphology, particularly in areas such as northern Cascadia, where rocky headlands and fjords influence tsunami flow and the preservation of sedimentary deposits ...

From Meat to Plant‐Based Products? The Enduring Impact of BSE on Beef Consumption

Agricultural Economics, Volume 57, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This study reassesses the impact of the historical BSE outbreak on EU diets, showing that consumption patterns shifted persistently even after policy actions eliminated the food safety risk. Utilizing advanced difference‐in‐differences techniques on 1980–2020 data, we demonstrate that while beef consumption exhibited a transient U‐shaped ...

Transmissibility of H-Type Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy to Hamster PrP Transgenic Mice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Two distinct forms of atypical bovine spongiform encephalopathies (H-BSE and L-BSE) can be distinguished from classical (C-) BSE found in cattle based on biochemical signatures of disease-associated prion protein (PrPSc).

Metal Fatigue Fracture After Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Retrieval Analysis

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 4, April 2026.
(A) Revision total knee arthroplasty components fracture, promoted by a lack of metaphyseal fixation. (B) Scanning electron microscopy identifies transgranular fatigue crack propagation. (C) Modular junction analysis documents chemical and mechanical conditions associated with a decrease in fatigue strength.

Emergence of classical BSE strain properties during serial passages of H-BSE in wild-type mice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: Two distinct forms of atypical spongiform encephalopathies (H-BSE and L-BSE) have recently been identified in cattle. Transmission studies in several wild-type or transgenic mouse models showed that these forms were associated with two ...

Episodic Rifting of a Large Igneous Province Concentrated Along a Microcontinent Boundary

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Many large igneous provinces (LIPs) comprise once contiguous magmatic products that are now fragmented across multiple tectonic plates. Emplacement of these voluminous magmatic products is commonly coeval with, or shortly followed by, fragmentation into constituent domains.

From Ink to Mockup: An Integrated Study of Historical Gall Ink Formulations and Their Impact on Paper

ChemPlusChem, Volume 91, Issue 2, February 2026.
Iron gall inks percipitates (right), and mockups upon artificial ageing (left) Iron gall inks (IGIs) played a central role as a writing medium in Western countries, leaving behind a vast legacy and significant conservation challenges. This study presents a twofold methodological approach to investigate the physicochemical behaviour of IGI‐based ...
