IgG1 variations in the colostrum of Holstein dairy cows
High-immune quality colostrum (IgG1 concentration ⩾50 g/l) is crucial for the health and development of the young calf. Studies on colostrum quality tend to focus on external factors such as breed, parity or dry period length, but few have focused on ...

Aims To determine breastmilk concentrations of doravirine via PBPK modelling in combination with a clinical lactation study. As women living with HIV are not able to cease antiretroviral therapy during lactation, it is necessary to establish drug transfer into breastmilk to determine exposure of the infant to antiretroviral drugs and potential risk of ...

Evaluation of Buffalo Colostrum Quality by Estimation of Enzyme Activity Levels
A study to evaluate the value and potential use of colostral enzymes as markers for the evaluation of buffalo colostrum quality was conducted. The enzymes gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in buffalo's colostrum were measured spectrophotometrically, and their activities were correlated with the ...
