Yes, I had exactly the same question.
Apart from this: is gut not used in many medical situations to string
people together after cutting by a surgeon for example, or is this
perhaps done these days with other materials (nylgut? ;-) )

Dear List,
as Mimmo explains in a video (unfortunately in Italian) on his
facebook page, the original beef gut regulation in EU was due to fear
of the so-called "mad cow" disease transmission.
Excuse my ignorance, but since when are gut strings made out of
beef gut? I always assumed that Aquilla's gut strings are made from
sheep gut.
Cheers, Ralf Mattes
