Abstract
A tentative link has been suggested between osteochondrosis (OC) andfeeding high starch diets in growing horses. The pathology of OC ismultifactorial and it is therefore appropriate to explore using a techniquethat allows for characterization and quantification of the plasma (PL)and synovial fluid (SF) proteomes. The objective of this study was todetermine if the concentration of dietary starch influences the proteomesof SF and PL and to isolate, identify and characterize proteins that aredifferentially present in relation to diet or sample type. Six yearlings,maintained on dry lot with ad libitum access to
