Canadian researcher working on making car plastics from mad cow parts?

Canadian researcher working on making car plastics from mad cow parts?

A researcher with the University of Alberta may have found a way to keep cattle waste products out of landfills. David Bressler, an associate professor with the institution's Department of Agricultural, Food and Nutritional Science began working to find uses for beef parts contaminated with mad cow disease after the Canadian beef industry was struck with the illness in 2003. Now Bressler has found a way to use the parts to create plastics that may find their way into vehicle cabins.
