Eliminating Spiked Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Agent Activity from Heparin [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
US manufacturers, concerned about bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), ceased marketing bovine heparin in the 1990s. Recent short supplies of safe porcine heparin suggest that reintroducing bovine heparin might benefit public health.

Experimental Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy in Squirrel Monkeys: The Same Complex Proteinopathy Appearing after Very Different Incubation Times [PDF]

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
Incubation periods in humans infected with transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) agents can exceed 50 years. In humans infected with bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) agents, the effects of a “species barrier,” often observed when TSE ...

Biodegradation of bovine spongiform encephalopathy prions in compost [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
To reduce the transmission risk of bovine spongiform encephalopathy prions (PrPBSE), specified risk materials (SRM) that can harbour PrPBSE are prevented from entering the feed and food chains.

Susceptibility of European red deer (Cervus elaphus elaphus) to alimentary challenge with bovine spongiform encephalopathy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
European red deer (Cervus elaphus elaphus) are susceptible to the agent of bovine spongiform encephalopathy, one of the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, when challenged intracerebrally but their susceptibility to alimentary challenge, the ...

Administration of L-Type Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy to Macaques to Evaluate Zoonotic Potential [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases
We administered L-type bovine spongiform encephalopathy prions to macaques to determine their potential for transmission to humans. After 75 months, no clinical symptoms appeared, and prions were undetectable in any tissue by Western blot or ...

Oral Transmission of L-Type Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Agent among Cattle [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
To determine oral transmissibility of the L-type bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) prion, we orally inoculated 16 calves with brain homogenates of the agent. Only 1 animal, given a high dose, showed signs and died at 88 months. These results suggest
