Abstract

On December 27th, 1996 a Galloway cattle named "Cindy" died of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in Höxter. So far all cases of BSE reported in Germany have been imported from the UK. However, the identity and origin of "Cindy" was not clear. DNA sequence analysis of the mitochondrial D-loop region and DNA typing of micro-satellite sites finally revealed that "Cindy" was imported from the UK as well.
