Differentiation of Prions from L-type BSE versus Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
We compared transmission characteristics for prions from L-type bovine spongiform encephalopathy and MM2-cortical sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in the Syrian golden hamster and an ovine prion protein–transgenic mouse line and isolated distinct prion

Unlocking the Potential of Sea Bass Skin: Characterization of Gelatin and Edible Gelatin Films

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) skin waste was successfully valorized into high‐purity gelatin. SSG exhibited significantly higher oil binding capacity than commercial bovine and fish gelatins. Edible films developed from sea bass skin displayed a smooth, compact, and ordered matrix morphology.

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy in the UK: An Update

, 1991
Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy, BSE, was first diagnosed in England in November 1986. It is a slow disease and the incubation period varies between two and five years, and so mainly affects cows.

Experimental transfusion of variant CJD-infected blood reveals previously uncharacterised prion disorder in mice and macaque

Nature Communications, 2017
It is hypothesised that exposure to bovine spongiform encephalopathy through contaminated food could have resulted in a large proportion of latent variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease cases in humans. Here the authors demonstrate that inoculation with blood

Transmission of New Bovine Prion to Mice

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
We previously reported that cattle were affected by a prion disorder that differed from bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) by showing distinct molecular features of disease-associated protease-resistant prion protein (PrPres).

Modeling localized deer removal strategies for managing chronic wasting disease

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 7, September 2026.
We used an agent‐based model developed for chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Midwestern white‐tailed deer to assess localized deer removal strategies and how local conditions affect management outcomes. Parcel‐based and ring culling were most effective at reducing CWD prevalence and persistence, and transmission was always greater at greater deer ...

All clinically-relevant blood components transmit prion disease following a single blood transfusion: a sheep model of vCJD [PDF]

, 2011
Variant CJD (vCJD) is an incurable, infectious human disease, likely arising from the consumption of BSE-contaminated meat products. Whilst the epidemic appears to be waning, there is much concern that vCJD infection may be perpetuated in humans by the ...

Transmission of Atypical Bovine Prions to Mice Transgenic for Human Prion Protein

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
To assess risk for cattle-to-human transmission of prions that cause uncommon forms of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), we inoculated mice expressing human PrP Met129 with field isolates.

Improving Clinical Diagnosis of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies in Sheep: Which Signs Are Important?

Animals
Scrapie is a notifiable transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) in sheep that relies on clinical examinations for reporting suspects. A short examination protocol was used in 1002 sheep to define clinical markers suggestive of scrapie.
