Acquisition of antibody isotypes against Plasmodium falciparum blood stage antigens in a birth cohort. [PDF]
Information on the period during which infants lose their maternally derived antibodies to malaria and begin to acquire naturally their own immune responses against parasite antigens is crucial for understanding when malaria vaccines may be best ...

Protection against canine parvovirus type 2 infection in puppies by colostrum-derived antibodies
During the first weeks of life puppies remain protected against canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV2) infection thanks to maternally derived antibodies (MDA) absorbed with colostrum after birth. The objective of the present study was to present the variability
