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).

Extrusion and Pancreatin Superdosing Modulate the Metabolic Impact of 20% Chlorella vulgaris Inclusion in Broiler Diets

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, Volume 110, Issue 4, Page 506-522, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Microalgae such as Chlorella vulgaris are gaining attention as sustainable and nutritionally valuable feed ingredients, with the potential to partially replace soybean meal in broiler diets. However, dietary inclusion of 20% C. vulgaris has been attempted, but negatively affected growth performance due to limited digestibility.

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.

Risk Ranking of Microbiological Hazards in Food (2015–2019)

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract Microbiological food safety risks arise from pathogens that can contaminate food at different points along the food chain. Exposure to these hazards can result in illnesses that can vary widely in severity and duration, depending on factors such as the specific pathogen involved, the amount of the pathogen ingested, and the susceptibility of ...

Sheep Feed and Scrapie, France

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
Scrapie is a small ruminant, transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE). Although in the past scrapie has not been considered a zoonosis, the emergence of bovine spongiform encephalopathy, transmissible to humans and experimentally to sheep, indicates

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy.

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1994
BSE 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 ...

Molecular Typing of Protease-Resistant Prion Protein in Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies of Small Ruminants, France, 2002–2009

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
The agent that causes bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) may be infecting small ruminants, which could have serious implications for human health. To distinguish BSE from scrapie and to examine the molecular characteristics of the protease-resistant ...

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Infectivity in Greater Kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros)

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
Of all the species exposed naturally to the bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) agent, the greater kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros), a nondomesticated bovine from Africa, appears to be the most susceptible to the disease.

Rapid Typing of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy Strains with Differential ELISA

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
The bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) agent has been transmitted to humans, leading to variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Sheep and goats can be experimentally infected by BSE and have been potentially exposed to natural BSE; however, whether BSE ...

Sympathetic Prions

The Scientific World Journal, 2001
Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies are a group of invariably fatal neurodegenerative diseases. The infectious agent is termed prion and is thought to be composed of a modified protein (PrPSc or PrPRES), a protease-resistant conformer of the normal
