TSE / BSE Statement

Biologically sourced material is used in these products including, but not limited to, meat peptones, blood, serum, beef, liver extract, heart extract, and bile.

Animal source materials are primarily a concern with regard to Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy (TSE) and Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE).

Products may contain components of animal origin. All components of animal origin in the product formulation have been sourced from BSE-free and TSE-free countries as identified by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Certified knowledge of the origin of the animals does not guarantee the absence of transmissible pathogenic agents. It is recommended that Universal Precautions be observed.
