| Abstract: | The brain of a ferret showing abnormal neurologic signs was evaluated by histopathologic, histochemical, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural examinations. Extensive neuronal vacuolation was observed. Since the brain was negative for protease-resistant protein prion (PrP'"), it was concluded that this was not a case of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy. |
