Abstract

Joint disease, particularly osteoarthritis, is a major cause of lameness and loss of athletic performance in the equine industry. Much interest therefore, has focussed on the use of biochemical markers, such as keratan sulphate, a proteoglycan of articular cartilage, as a means of evaluating cartilage and diagnosing osteoarthritis.
