IMPORTANT LEGAL NOTICE - The information on this site is subject to a and a Health Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) Information for consumers - GUIDE Second edition - 29.10.1996 The announcement made by the United Kingdom authorities on 20 March 1996 that a link between bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and Creutzfeldt-Jacob Disease (CJD) could not be ruled out provoked an unprecedented crisis of confidence among European consumers with regard to beef and bovine products. Since then, a flood of contradictory and often incomplete information has merely amplified these concerns. It is appropriate, then, to inform consumers about the situation and the measures to reinforce consumer safety which have been taken or which are envisaged in the framework of the European Union and to try to outline the scientific uncertainties at the root of the crisis. This briefing, which incorporates, updates and supplements the guide of 28 May 1996, and which was prepared by the Interdepartmental Working Party established by the Commission on 27 March 1996, sets out to do just that.

Hypothetically termed a prion to denote an infectious protein, because a partially protease resistant isoform of a normal host protein, PrP, is the only detectable macromolecule associated with infectivity. RESISTANCE TO PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL ACTION Temperature: pH: Stable over a wide range of pH. Disinfectants: Survival: Recommended decontamination measures will reduce titres but may be incompletely effective if dealing with high titre material, when agent is protected within dried organic matter, or in tissue preserved in aldehyde fixatives. Survives in tissues post-mortem after a wide range of rendering processes. Related hamster scrapie infectivity can survive interment in soil for 3 years and dry heat of 1 hour at temperatures as high as 360°C. EPIDEMIOLOGY The incidence during the course of the epidemic in Great Britain has been low. Within affected herds the maximum annual incidence was 3%.

PUBLIC HEALTH BIBLIOGRAPHY Chapter 1 Introduction BOVINE SPONGIFORM ENCEPHALOPATHY (BSE) Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) was first recognized and defined as a pathological entity in the United Kingdom in November 1986 (Wells et al., 1996). Initial epidemiological investigations and examination of archived brains indicated that the first cases occurred around April 1985. Subsequently, the largest freeborn epidemic of a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) occurred which has had severe economic effects and has caused concern for public health. The initial clinical signs of this fatal neurological disease are non-specific, typically involving behavioural changes. As the clinical phase progresses the disease is typified by alterations in mental state and of sensation and ataxia. The majority of affected animals reach the advanced stages within two to three months from the onset, when slaughter on welfare grounds becomes necessary (Wilesmith

A specific diagnosis was arrived at in 1986. By June of 1990 there were 14,324 confirmed cases out of an estimated population of 10 million cattle in Great Britain (2, 22, 23, 104). Other cases have been reported in Ireland and Oman in 1989 and 1990, respectively (22, 23, 62, 52). BSE is an afebrile neurological disease that primarily affects mature cattle. Clinical signs include abnormally stilted gaits, high stepping, heightened sensory perception, itching, anorexia, excessive licking, and death. Abnormal motor nerve control coupled with aggressiveness have earned the disease the common name of Mad or Raging Cow Disease. Although all types of cattle are susceptible, most cases have been reported in the Holstein-Fresian breed. The first clinical signs of the disease (onset) has been observed in cattle at an age of 1 year 10 months to 15 years. From onset, the disease course varies from less than 2 weeks to 14 months usually resulting in death or humane destruction within 4 months (2, 9, 20, 22, 23, 31, 37, 69). The causative agent of BSE is not known, however, histopathological studies and clinical signs indicate a strong resemblance to that of scrapie. Brain extracts of suspect cattle have produced disease specific structures known as scrapie-associated fibrils (SAF). SAF are attributed to infectious type agents called prions. Prions are associated with a unique protein found in brain tissue called prion protein (PrP). Because scrapie has been transmissible via filtrates, the disease agent has been thought to be a virus. However, other characteristics of the disease do not readily fit traditional virus concepts (2, 6, 8, 9, 19, 31, 49, 54). In 1979 studies were conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to attempt experimental transmission of scrapie to cattle. Approximately 30% of the inoculated cattle developed progressive neurological signs of the disease. Upon initial histological examination scrapie could not be confirmed. However, a more recent examination of the same tissues, coupled with new information, have shown PrP structures to be present (2, 79). The incubation period for the disease has also been studied. Mice inoculated with BSE brain homogenates develop neurological signs of the disease 300 to 450 days later, therefore, indicating a prolonged incubation period before onset. In cattle the incubation period has been estimated to be from 2 to 8 years. Although the onset of BSE is observed in mature cattle the prolonged incubation period indicates that exposure can and does occur in calfhood. Calves have an estimated 30 times risk of exposure than adults (2, 31, 82). To date there is no evidence of animal to animal transmission of BSE. BSE is considered a "common source" epidemic, meaning that animals contract the disease from a common element in their environment. Evidence has ruled out sources of the disease such as semen, chemicals, autosomal inheritance, biologics and pharmaceuticals. The primary suspect disease source are diets fed to cattle containing ruminant based meat and bone protein. Scrapie or BSE contaminated carcasses which are rendered for ruminant diets may account for the presence of SAF in the brain homogenates of affected cattle. The feeding of animal protein specifically derived from ruminants was ceased in the United Kingdom as of July, 1988. Results of this control effort by the United Kingdom will not be assessable before 1992 (2, 9, 20, 23, 31, 91, 97). There have been no reported cases of BSE in the United States. As a preventative measure a prohibition of importation of ruminants from the United Kingdom was implemented in July of 1989. Scrapie and other forms of spongiform encephalopathy are present in the United States, hence, the intense interest in BSE. A transmissible form of spongiform encephalopathy found in ranched mink, transmissible mink encephalopathy (TME), in the United States has been primarily attributed to the feeding of scrapie infected sheep and goat carcasses. However, cattle carcasses (also part of the ranched mink diet) are now a suspect source of TME (2, 3, 4, 83). The USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Veterinary Services program produces a Programs Alert on BSE (released in 1989) and a quarterly Foreign Animal Disease Report providing up-to-date information on diseases foreign to the United States including BSE.

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Bovine Spongioform Encephalopathy ( also known as BSE or "mad cow disease" ) is a progressive degenerative disease that affects to central nervous system of cattle. It belongs to a group of similar but distinct neurological diseases that include scrapie in sheep and Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease (CJD) in humans. The cause of BSE is unknown and there is no treatment for this fatal disease. BSE does not exist in Canada . Since 1986, when first diagnosed in Great Britain, BSE has profoundly affected the British cattle and beef industries. BSE has been confirmed in domestic cattle in Ireland, France, Portugal, and Switzerland, and in cattle exported from Great Britain to Oman, the Falkland Islands, germany, denmark, and Italy. Canada has experienced one case of the disease in a cow imported from Great Britain in 1987, and diagnosed with BSE six years later. The federal government immediately took extraordinary measures to deal with risks BSE might pose to other cattle in Canada. These measures included: destruction of the entire herd containing the BSE-infected cow

Transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is a fatal, neurodegenerative, transmissible brain disease of cattle. The disease is fatal for cattle within weeks to months of its onset. BSE first came to the attention of the scientific community in November 1986 with the appearance in cattle of a newly recognized form of neurological disease in the United Kingdom. Between November 1986 and November 2002, about 180 000 cases of BSE were confirmed in the United Kingdom. Since 1989, when the first BSE case was reported outside the United Kingdom, relatively small numbers of cases (about 1500 in total) have also been reported in native cattle in many European countries and Japan. However, all but a couple of dozen have been reported in four countries - France, Ireland, Portugal and Switzerland. Small numbers of cases have also been reported in Canada, the Falkland Islands, and Oman, but solely in animals imported from the United Kingdom.
