Bovine spongiform encephalopathy.
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1994BSE has occurred in the U.K. as an extended common source epidemic since 1985/86. The vehicle of infection was concentrated feeds containing meat and bone meal produced by the rendering of ovine, bovine and other animal wastes. The epidemic was probably initiated in 1981/82 when a sudden decline in the use of solvents in rendering allowed a low ...

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy☆
2008Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) was first identified in 1986 and to date more than 184 000 cases have been identified in the UK and more than 5000 in other countries, mainly, but not exclusively, in Europe. BSE was transmitted through contaminated feed and legislative measures to limit exposure to infection have resulted in a decline in the ...

Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics), 2003Early epidemiological studies identified bovine spongiform encephalopathy as a feed-borne infection associated with infected meat-and-bone meal in animal feed. The infection may have derived from scrapie in sheep, a spontaneous genetic mutation in cattle, or a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy in another mammalian species.

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE)
2003Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), popularly known as ‘mad cow disease,’ belongs to the group of diseases previously known as the subacute, transmissible, spongiform encephalopathies and now often referred to as prion diseases. The clinical signs are more readily detected in the early stages by those familiar with the individual cow's habits, such

Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics), 1992A detailed account is given of the occurrence of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), current research into the aetiology of this new disease of cattle, and the relationship between BSE, scrapie and other similar diseases. Epidemiology, clinical signs, pathology, diagnosis, prevention and control are described.

Pathologie-biologie, 2005The identification of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) in human strongly reinforced the perception of risks associated with the infectious agent involved in Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE). The development of rapid tests for the diagnosis of BSE by the detection of the abnormal prion protein allowed a huge increase in surveillance of the

Pathologie-biologie, 1995A new Transmissible Sub-acute Spongiform Encephalopathy (TSSE) appeared in 1986 in the bovine species, mainly concerning Great Britain where more than 100,000 cases have now been identified. This review describes the features of the disease that showed it belonged to this particular group of diseases. The currently available hypothesis about the origin
