BSE See Boston Stock Exchange (BSE). risk material from beef. The new Whizard(R) TrimVac is the first such product to be introduced from this partnership. This unique device reduces the potential risk factors associated with the removal of BSE material in the processing of beef. The Whizard(R) TrimVac was unveiled at the MATIC industry convention in Paris, France on November 19, 2002. After the beef carcass is split, the TrimVac is used to dislodge, cut and vacuum away spinal marrow spinal marrow n. See spinal cord. and spinal membrane (BSE risk material) from the halved spinal canal spinal canal n. See vertebral canal. Spinal canal The opening that runs through the center of the column of spinal bones (vertebrae), and through which the spinal cord passes. to a separate holding tank, from which it can be properly disposed. This method is superior and safer to traditional methods of removing spinal tissue by hand, grinding, or by vacuum suction alone. Support for this new method of BSE risk material removal is building within the scientific community. The Whizard(R) TrimVac makes a cylindrical cut along the spinal column--including the spinal ganglia--while the risk material is vacuumed away, fast, simply, and effectively. According to Bettcher and BVS officials, the combination of precisely cutting along the spinal column spinal column, bony column forming the main structural support of the skeleton of humans and other vertebrates, also known as the vertebral column or backbone. It consists of segments known as vertebrae linked by intervertebral disks and held together by ligaments. and evacuating risk material is rapidly emerging as the preferred methodology in several European countries, including France and Germany.
