Assessment of goat colostrum quality and passive transfer

open access: yesAmerican Association of Bovine Practitioners Conference Proceedings, 2019
Colostrum provides agammaglobulinemic newborns with immunity though immunoglobulin (IgG) passive transfer shortly after birth. Research on goat colostrum quality and passive transfer assessment is limited. Study objectives were to evaluate colostrum quality in goats defining a relationship between Brix reading and IgG concentration, document serum IgG ...

Determination of colostrum quality using Brix refractometer in sheep

open access: yesActa Veterinaria Hungarica
AbstractIn this study, we aimed to determine the quality of colostrum in sheep by using Brix refractometer. The research included 100 sheep of Merino X Kivircik crossbred. From each, we collected 15 mL of colostrum samples in falcon tubes within the first 8 h after delivery. Mean colostral IgG level of sheep was 156.68 ± 7.23 g L−1, optical and digital

Differences in fat, carbohydrate, protein, vitamin and mineral concentrations provide nutrition for the neonate. A high lipid content is an indispensable source of energy, while protein aids development and vitamins and minerals ...

Factors Affecting Colostrum Quality in Dairy Cows, Measurement of Colostrum Quality and Efficiency of Passive Transfer

2021
Colostrum is the first milk secreted by mammary gland following birth and it is secreted within the first week after calving. It has many benefical components for neonates. Colostrum has protective features against pathogens and affects viability and growth of the calves. Due to the placental structure of ruminants, calves born agammaglobulinemic.

Quality Assessment of Bovine and Equine Colostrum – An Overview

Schweiz Arch Tierheilkd, 2019
Good quality colostrum intake is essential for passive immunity in neonatal calf and foals. The quality of colostrum depends on its IgG content. Since in practice the possibilities for a direct determination of these parameter are limited, an estimation of colostrum quality is often based on its biophysical properties.
