Transmission of C-BSE and BSE/JP24 prion to mice

Inoculum	Mice	No. diseased/no. inoculated	Incubation period (days ± SD)
C-BSE
1^st passage	TgBoPrP	11/11	223.5 ± 13.5
2^nd passage	TgBoPrP	15/15	214.9 ± 4.8
1^st passage	ICR	5/5	408.6 ± 28.2
BSE/JP24
1^st passage	TgBoPrP	10/10	197.7 ± 3.4^*
2^nd passage	TgBoPrP	10/10	152.2 ± 3.1^*
1^st passage	ICR	0/23	>649^**

^*

The incubation periods were significantly different between the first and second passage of BSE/JP24 prion (p < 0.05).

^**

No PrP^Sc accumulation was observed at 649 days post inoculation.
