Maternal Isoflavone‐S Improve Offspring Intestinal Homeostasis Through Maternal Metabolome–Microbiome Intestine Interactions in a Pig Model

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
Our results indicate that maternal ISO‐S during late gestation and throughout lactation can improve offspring intestinal homeostasis, which may be related to antioxidant enzymes and immunoglobulins in sow colostrum through maternal metabolome–microbiome intestine interactions.

Colostrum Composition and Immunoglobulin G Content in Dairy and Dual-purpose Cattle Breeds.

Journal of Animal Science, 2020
Immunoglobulins (Ig) are essential components in colostrum of bovine species that enable passive immunization of newborn calves. Concentrations of fat and protein are greater in colostrum compared to mature milk, and represent a vital source of energy ...
