Biosensors in veterinary diagnostics

Currently working on BVD, Liver fluke, IBR, and IgG Have achieved proof of concept for BVD antibody

• Nanosensors to allow rapid on-site diagnostics

• To both replace and support laboratory based diagnostics such as ELISA

Advantages • Handheld devices • Small sample volumes required • Microfluidics coupled to biosensor chip • Results in minutes

Automated milking system (AMS)

(Robotic milking)

Will AMS become widespread in Ireland?

Will they be adapted – e.g. mobile robot?

What can we do with all the data they generate?

Components of Digital Dairy for

‘SMART manufacture’

• Link genetic make-up of animals, grass cultivar, microbiota

of soil and rumen, nitrogen map on farm, etc with phenotypic

traits

• Advanced Chemometrics

• Photonics and sensor technology

• Big data capability / new algorithms to crunch the data

• Predictive models to generate ‘target composition’ based on

data from Animal and Feed

• Ability to network MIR based instruments store their data for

generation of prediction models

• Methodologies to generate gold standards for phenotyping

• Targeted milk composition

Milk tailored for new

product streams!

Genotyping the herd!

• Genomic selection has increased rate of genetic gain in dairy herd by 60%

• Custom SNP chip (Teagasc, ICBF, Weatherby’s, Illumina) developed in 2013

• Ireland will soon have the largest set of genotyped animals in the world –

250,000/yr

• Now research to leverage this data – 250 trillion data points

Faster genetic gain
