Abstract
The transfer of 64Cu and copper to their lambs was measured in late pregnancy in normal ewes and in ewes infected with Border Disease. The differences previously observed between copper concentrations in the central nervous systems of normal and infected lambs were confirmed, but there were no differences between the rates of transfer of 64Cu or copper from ewes to lambs. The different copper concentrations were due to the smaller weights and dry matter contents of the tissues of infected lambs. Evidence was obtained that the time-course of deposition of copper in the cerebrum was different from that in the spinal cord.
