Fu ruya et al / J . Livestock Sci . ( 2012 ) 3: 7 - 26 7 Vaccines containing organic mercury compound and implications in relation to BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy)

The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of thimerosal (an organic mercury compound), a preservative incorporated into vaccines, on living organisms. A case is presented where BSE-like pathological conditions in brain tissue is artificially created artificially created. Possible mechanisms and causes are discussed. Implications are commented on. In this study ourexperiments revealed production of similar BSE-like pathological conditions through in vivo staining of a chemically affected tissue, from which we inferred that BSE is a disease caused by chemical contamination.
