Body responds to challenges as it fights to return to normal. Cells die as part of normal life (Apoptosis). DNA information regarding cell activity is released into the blood and contain the genomic regions that were transcribed just before the cell died. CNAD identify long chain DNA biomarkers specific to the host’s response to the challenge. Markers are usually present before the clinical signs appear. Biomarkers are patented. α<0.0001
