Abstract

The Oklahoma Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory investigates a large number of cases each year, many of which have legal implications. The majority of bovine cases with legal implications involve oil field wastes, feed additives such as urea, feed contaminants such as mycotoxins, pesticides, drugs and malicious poisoning. The laboratory has also investigated cases of insurance fraud and animal mutilation cases where unusual drug residues were identified.
