OAHN Bovine Network Project Disease testing for newly introduced cattle

The purchase of cattle increases the risk of introducing an infectious disease to Ontario dairy and beef herds. By promoting and facilitating disease testing of high-risk cattle, the OAHN bovine network hopes to promote best practices for introduction of new animals into a herd and conduct surveillance for diseases of interest in the cattle population.

The OAHN Bovine project allows veterinarians to submit samples from newly or recently purchased cattle for a panel of tests: Salmonella Dublin, Bovine Leukemia Virus, Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis (Johnes), and Anaplasma marginale.
