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

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 ...

Molecular Discrimination of Sheep Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy from Scrapie

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
Sheep CH1641-like transmissible spongiform encephalopathy isolates have shown molecular similarities to bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) isolates. We report that the prion protein PrPSc from sheep BSE is extremely resistant to denaturation.

Phenotypic Similarity of Transmissible Mink Encephalopathy in Cattle and L-type Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy in a Mouse Model

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
Transmissible mink encepholapathy (TME) is a foodborne transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) of ranch-raised mink; infection with a ruminant TSE has been proposed as the cause, but the precise origin of TME is unknown.

Diagnosis of bovine spongiform encephalopathy: A review [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Quarterly, 2000
Cows affected with bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) display chronic neurological signs consisting of behavioural changes, abnormalities of posture and movement, and/or hyperaesthesia. At present, there are no laboratory test available to diagnose BSE in the live animal. In this article, we describe the post-mortem diagnostic examination of brains
