Use of serum total protein as a proxy for passive transfer status in lambs
Veterinary Record, Volume 197, Issue 12, Page e323-e326, 13-27 December 2025.Abstract Background Serum total protein (TP) is commonly used to investigate failure of passive transfer of immunity (FPTI) in cattle. This short communication explores the use of serum TP as a proxy of passive transfer (PT) status in lambs. Methods Blood samples were obtained from 434 lambs within 8‒24 hours of birth to measure serum immunoglobulin G (
