Antibody kinetics against tetanus toxoid before and after primary vaccination of foals

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Vaccination recommendations for foals against Clostridium tetani vary. Available studies assessing foal immune responses, maternal antibody interference, or individual variation often used small foal numbers. Objectives To quantify antibody responses after tetanus vaccination in foals and explore associations with passively ...

Estimation of Genetic Parameters and Weighted Single-Step Genome-Wide Association Study for Indicators of Colostrum Quality in Chinese Holstein Cattle

Agriculture
Colostrum is the milk harvested during the first few hours after calving, which contains high levels of immunoglobulins, antimicrobial peptides, and growth factors essential for the health of neonates.

Impact of 2 Versus 1 Colostrum Meals on Failure of Transfer of Passive Immunity, Pre-Weaning Morbidity and Mortality, and Performance of Dairy Calves in a Large Dairy Herd

Animals, 2021
Failure of transfer of passive immunity (FTPI) due to inadequate ingestion of colostral immunoglobulins by calves is associated with increased mortality and morbidity risks.

Studies of Colostrum and Milk Composition and Quality of Gidran Mares [PDF]

, 2023
Foals are born with intact but weakly functioning immune systems. Colostrum provides special immunoglobulins, which are essential for the development of passive immunity.

Vaccination for girls and women across the life course: Evidence‐based recommendations for clinical practice and policy

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Vaccination across the life course is a cornerstone of preventive health care for girls and women. Although WHO recommends completion of essential vaccines by adolescence, global coverage remains suboptimal. Vaccine‐preventable diseases—including HPV‐related cancers, vaginal, vulvar, anal, oropharyngeal, influenza, pertussis, hepatitis B ...

Understanding natural variation in milk lipids: why parity and lactation stage matter for nutritional value

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Bovine milk is a major dietary source of lipids whose fatty acid (FA) profile shapes its nutritional and technological quality, yet its natural variation is commonly described using fixed days‐in‐milk windows that ignore individual peak‐yield timing and parity‐specific metabolism.
