Peer-reviewed (in-press) study finds serum-based antibody tests align, but milk results vary—calling for improved milk-specific diagnostics to strengthen herd surveillance and profitability

CARLSBAD, Calif., Oct. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Pictor Holdings Inc. today announced new peer-reviewed data showing close agreement between commercial antibody tests when used on serum, but higher variability when used on milk—findings that highlight the need for milk-specific diagnostic standards to scale Johne’s disease surveillance.

Johne’s disease costs the U.S. dairy industry an estimated $198 million annually (Journal of Dairy Science, Rasmussen et al., 2021). The disease, caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP), progressively damages the gut of infected cattle, reducing nutrient absorption and milk yield. It spreads primarily through contaminated feces, milk or feed.

Key Findings:

• Serum results align strongly: Two commercial antibody tests demonstrated good agreement when used on serum (κ = 0.84–0.94), showing that serum yields consistent and comparable data across kits for herd surveillance.
• Milk results show greater variability: Agreement between the different kits on milk samples was lower (κ = 0.59–0.82), reinforcing the need for purpose-built milk assays with standardized cutoff values to ensure diagnostic reliability.
• ELISA and PCR are complementary: The study reported moderate to substantial agreement between ELISA and fecal PCR results (κ = 0.43–0.74). Each method detects a distinct biomarker—ELISA detects host antibodies to MAP exposure, while PCR identifies MAP genetic material–providing complimentary insights for herd management.

Why It Matters:
Milk is a cost-effective and practical specimen type for dairy herd level surveillance, since milk sample collection is already routine. Improving the performance of milk-based antibody tests and standardizing cutoff values could make early Johne’s disease detection more consistent and scalable–without relying on more invasive or higher-cost testing methods.

“Johne’s disease remains one of the most under-recognized burdens in global dairy production. Even at subclinical levels, it quietly erodes milk yield, herd health, and producer profitability,” said Dr. John Bannantine, retired USDA-ARS Research Microbiologist. “The wider impact reaches beyond economics—this is a disease that challenges both animal welfare and, potentially, human health. Our research is focused on finding faster, more reliable ways to detect infection early, because every day of delay compounds the loss.”

“Veterinarians, dairy farmers, and dairy testing laboratories need cost-effective tests developed specifically for milk,” said Dr Jamie Platt, CEO of Pictor Holdings, Inc. “Repurposing serum-based assays is not optimal and this study underscores why milk-specific test design is needed for reliable herd monitoring.”  

Implications for the Dairy Industry:
The study’s findings support three key actions for advancing Johne’s disease control:

• Adopt milk-first surveillance strategies using assays specifically developed for milk to maintain cost and scale advantages.
• Drive industry alignment on standardized milk test cutoff values to improve result consistency and strengthen confidence in herd management decisions.
• Integrate milk antibody testing for herd screening, complemented by fecal PCR in higher-risk herds to enhance overall diagnostic accuracy.

About the Study
The paper, “A comparative study between milk- and serum-based antibody detection assays for Johne’s disease in New Zealand dairy cattle,” analyzed samples from four dairy herds in New Zealand. Researchers compared two commercial diagnostic kits on paired milk and serum samples, with a subset also tested using fecal PCR. The study was co-funded by Pictor Ltd. (a Pictor Holdings company) and Massey Ventures Ltd.

Although conducted in New Zealand’s pasture system, these findings are relevant to dairy operations across North and South America, Europe, and Australasia. Pictor’s multiplex diagnostic platform supports veterinary labs and providers with validated, off-the-shelf serum assays as examined in this study.

The abstract is now live, with the full paper set to be published soon in Tuberculosis (Elsevier). Media can request the full paper, figure pack, or interviews with co-authors and Pictor’s technical team using the contact information below.

SHANGHAI, Oct. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Boqii Holding Limited (“Boqii” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: BQ), a leading pet-focused platform in China, today announced that Yoken, its private label, is joining hands with a number of pet-friendly hotels to continue exploring the development of a pet-friendly ecosystem.

As “traveling with pets” has evolved from a niche demand to a mainstream consumption trend, the pet tourism market has seen a continuous release of demand. However, the issue of “pseudo-friendliness” has become an industry shortcoming—some businesses use “pet allowance” as a label to attract customers, lacking supporting services such as pet-specific supplies and cleaning tools, which fails to meet the actual needs of pet-owners. Against this backdrop, Yoken, a domestic pet brand deeply rooted in the pet industry, has promoted the standardization of industry services through a series of solid initiatives.

In 2025, Yoken focused on daily pet-friendly travel scenarios and deepened its collaboration in high-end cultural and tourism ventures. It has successively entered into co-branding partnerships with some well-known high-end luxury hotels, including Banyan Tree Sanya, the flagship store of Banyan Tree Hotel in China, Langham Xintiandi Shanghai under Langham Hotels International, and Fuchun Resort Hangzhou. Together with these partner hotels, Yoken has launched professional custom rooms suitable for pets’ stay. These guest rooms integrate pet-appropriate decorative designs to create a warm living atmosphere for stays with pets. Additionally, Yoken has developed exclusive customized travel kits containing essential items for pets during travel, such as pet-specific wet wipes, deodorizing sprays, pet training pads, and teeth-cleaning finger cots. This initiative has significantly reduced the travel burden of pet owners, and further conveyed the concept of “pets as family members” through detailed services, filling the gap in pet services at high-end hotels.

“Taking pets out used to feel like moving house, but now the hotel even prepares pet pads in advance. The feeling of being understood and valued really makes me want to choose this place again,” said a pet owner who experienced the co-branded hotel service by Yoken. This feedback serves as a vivid testament to Yoken’s service reputation.

As a seasoned player in the pet industry, Yoken’s series of initiatives not only accurately align with Gen Z consumers’ demand for “services with a human touch” but also drive pet-friendly services from “superficial labeling” toward “professionalization,” setting a service benchmark for the pet tourism industry. In the future, as Yoken continues to explore the development of a pet-friendly ecosystem, traveling with pets will become more convenient, and pet travel will enter a new stage of higher-quality development.
