The Colostrum Quality of Primiparous and Multiparous Holstein Cow.
Colostrum management is one of the most important managemental factors in protecting calf health for the first weeks of life. After birth the first secretion from the mammary glands is called colostrum. Colostrum is varied in terms of colour and the composition varies from that of normal milk.

Field test to evaluate colostrum quality in alpaca
In the majority of livestock species, the concentration of maternal immunoglobulin (Ig) in colostrum determines the Ig level in their offspring, and the failure of passive transfer of maternal immunoglobulins results in their susceptibility to disease.

Evaluation of ewe colostrum quality estimation of enzyme activity levels.
The objective of this study was to assess the potential use of colostral enzymes for the determination of colostrum quality in ewe. The enzymes gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were measured in the colostrum from 11 ewes, milked within six hours after birth, by a dry chemistry system and ...
