Immunoglobulins form an important component of the immunological activity found in milk
and colostrum. They are central to the immunological link that occurs when the mother …

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are currently the largest and most dominant class of
therapeutic proteins. Inter-individual variability has been observed for several mAbs; …

To understand the biology and evolution of ruminants, the cattle genome was sequenced to
about sevenfold coverage. The cattle genome contains a minimum of 22,000 genes, with a …

To understand the biology and evolution of ruminants, the cattle genome was sequenced
to∼ 7× coverage. The cattle genome contains a minimum of 22,000 genes, with a core set of …

Objective—To identify cow and management factors associated with colostral IgG
concentration in dairy cows. Design—Prospective observational study. Animals—81 …

Two factors that contribute to preweaning mortality in piglets are the initiation of lactation by
sows and their ability to nurse their piglets. The objective of this study was to determine if the …

Mastitis is a very costly and common disease in the dairy industry. The study of the
transcriptome from healthy and mastitic milk somatic cell samples using RNA-Sequencing …

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry
has become one of the most powerful and widely applied technologies for SNP scoring and …

The role of the FcRn is fundamental in IgG metabolism. It is involved in transporting maternal
immunity and protects IgG from fast degradation throughout life. While the acquisition of the …

In ruminants, protective immunoglobulins are transferred to the newborn via colostrum to
mediate maternal immunity. There is a high selectivity in the transport of immunoglobulins …
