Hi Sam,
My understanding...
Such heat as is sufficient to consume Carbon will destroy
the pesky 'prion'...
Boiling certainly will not...
The 'prion' has been understood for decades among those as
had sincerely studied the matter...to be present in
'Bone'...(even the television programme 'Nova' eight years
ago? had represented palsied and wan american casualties as
were thought to have acquired the complaint from the use of
'Bone Meal' in their Gardens, years before, for having
inadvertantly aspirated minute particles of the resulting
dusts when broadcasting the Meal onto their Garden's
soils...)
While the highest concentrarions of prion involvement are
associated with the locations of greater neural
densities...with from certainties to high degrees of
suspicion as to the presence of lesser concentrations in
other tissues, saliva, mucous, Milk, excrement, Horn, Hoove,
Hide, Hair and so on...but that is all....merely lesser
densities, smaller concentrations represented as a
certainty...or thought very probably to be.
Absolutely all and every Bovine derived material should
prudently be looked at with narrowed gaze embued with either
suspicion, or, high degrees of suspicion.
Oh well...
Best wishes,
Phil

Subject: bone ash from mad cows?
> Not that I use bone ash, but I read somewhere recently
that the mad cow disease also is transfered by the cow's
bone marrow and that to get rid of the disease you had to
take extra precautions like boil down the entore cow,
evaporate the water and crush the remains into powder and
then treat the remains like hazardous waste as the "prions"
that cause the disease are virtually indestructable. Should
there be some precautions taken when using bone ??
