MicroRNA Biomarkers for Johne’s Disease

Johne's disease costs farmers up to 50% of their annual net profits and the estimated 10-year average annual losses totalling £25.5 million in the UK and 364.31 million euros across losses in the EU. Johne's disease is also the disease which causes the highest GHG emissions in cattle.

This Research Insight explores how microRNA Biomarkers can reliably diagnose early stage Johne's disease in cattle and predict disease progression, and how it compares to other diagnostic tools.
