The USDA stressed that it is "extremely unlikely" that the cattle involved were at risk for Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) or mad-cow disease due to the employment of multiple safeguards.

Hyperspectral imaging

Another application in agriculture is the detection of animal proteins in compound feeds to avoid bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), also known as mad-cow disease.

Jack Penner

Recently, Penner has become an active spokesman for farmers affected by the BSE crisis, which has kept the American border closed to Canadian beef.

Phosmet

Mark Purdey has made the controversial suggestion that phosmet may have played a key role in the epidemic of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE).
