Abstract excerpt

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) belongs to a distinct group of transmissible degenerative encephalopathies (TDE) that includes scrapie in sheep and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) of humans. These fatal neurological diseases are caused by unconventional but uncharacterized transmissible agents that have a number of unusual properties; this includes a high degree of resistance to inactivation. The only disin...
