FLI - Institute for Novel and Emerging Infectious Diseases (FLI-INNT)
The Institute for Novel and Emerging Infectious Diseases (INEID / site Insel Riems) fulfils the duties of the national reference Laboratory (NRL) for the diagnostic surveillance of TSE-diseases. That means, all suspect cases found by BSE rapid testing will be confirmed according to the OIE regulations and to the EU legislation (EU decision 999/2001). Further responsibilities are the accreditation of novel BSE rapid tests and the ongoing control and release of production batches of these tests.
