I'm not an expert so correct me if I am wrong.
My understanding is that these prions are found in the brain matter and
spinal cords of infected cattle and when bits and pieces get mixed in
with the muscle cuts the possibility of contacting BSE exists.
For the groups information..... just the other day in Canada a group of
scientists made the announcement that they believe they have found
these prions in leg muscles of deer.
Needles to say that would be bad news for hunters.
Correct me if I am wrong.
