The Community Reference Laboratory (CRL), in March 2005, notified the European Commission of the results of a second level of testing for Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy (TSE) of samples from one sheep from Cyprus and two sheep from France. Although a second level of testing could not classify any of the samples conclusively as BSE in sheep, there was insufficient evidence to definitively rule out the presence of BSE. Therefore, a more comprehensive third test would be carried out in order to determine the types of TSE in question. |
