Biodegradation of bovine spongiform encephalopathy prions in compost

Scientific 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.

Transmission of sheep‑bovine spongiform encephalopathy to pigs [PDF]

, 2016
Experimental transmission of the bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) agent has been successfully reported in pigs inoculated via three simultaneous distinct routes (intracerebral, intraperitoneal and intravenous).

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

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
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.

Further characterisation of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy phenotypes after inoculation of cattle with two temporally separated sources of sheep scrapie from Great Britain [PDF]

, 2015
Background The infectious agent responsible for the bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) epidemic in Great Britain is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) strain with uniform properties but the origin of this strain remains unknown. Based on

3D‐printing of Methacryloylated Recombinant Collagen for Tissue Engineering

ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 17, 5 May 2026.
Recombinant collagen‐like proteins offer promise as alternatives to mammalian collagens. There is less risk of disease transfer, and changes in structure can be readily introduced. Here, a recombinant collagen‐like protein was methacryloylated for extrusion printing and rapid photo‐crosslinking.

No Adaptation of the Prion Strain in a Heterozygous Case of Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
We investigated a clinical case of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease in a person heterozygous for methionine/valine at codon 129 of the prion protein gene and identified the same strain properties in variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in methionine ...

The Dejudicialization of the German Federal Bureaucracy: An Organizational Perspective on Policy‐Related Knowledge

Review of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Using data from a long‐term survey of senior civil servants (1970–2021), this study investigates the declining share of jurists in federal ministerial departments in Germany. The mechanisms driving this trend and its subsequent effects are discussed from an organizational perspective, highlighting the influence of environmental pressure and ...

Current status of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies in ruminants [PDF]

Biotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 2004
Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) encompass subacute neurological degenerative diseases for which the prototypes are scrapie in sheep and some forms of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in man. The emergence of a new form of TSE in cattle in United

Asynchronous Onset of Clinical Disease in BSE-Infected Macaques

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
To estimate the effect of the variability of prion disease onset on primary bovine spongiform encephalopathy transmission to humans, we studied 6 cynomolgus macaques.

Detection and localisation of PrP(Sc) in the liver of sheep infected with scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Prions are largely contained within the nervous and lymphoid tissue of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) infected animals. However, following advances in diagnostic sensitivity, PrP(Sc), a marker for prion disease, can now be located in a ...
