[QUOTE="Livestock-D, post: 751251, member: 14113"] There is one major problem with testing for BSE, it has to be done on a carcass, which means testing is done to a minimum. So cattle with BSE, that mingle throught the supply chain, basically go un detected. This is a fact. By the time testing the carcass is done, and BSE is confirmed in an animal, it has already been through a feedlot with perhaps 500+ other cattle. With Livestock traceability, at least you are able to identify the cattle, and feedlot, that the effected BSE cattle came from, and then work on a traceback of the other cattle. There needs to be another way to test for BSE, while the cattle is alive, though it is not cost effective to do this, which I beleive can be done, but also comes with a price tag$$$ Somebody correct me if I am wrong.
