“…Thus, the widely different concentrations of immunoglobulin given (Table 1) resulted in about the same concentrations of serum immunoglobulin at 8 h post partum (Table 2). These findings agree with the view of Kruse (1970) and Halliday (1974). This finding might complicate the prevention of the hypogammaglobulinaemia, which Molla (1978) examined.…”

Ewe's colostrum, dried milk, ewe's blood, cow's blood and cow's serum, given to a total of 56 newborn lambs, had various effects on serum immunoglobulin concentrations, the gut closure process and early growth rate.Cow's colostrum and serum proved to be good alternative sources of immunoglobulin for rearing lambs. Cow's and ewe's blood had adverse effects on immunoglobulin absorption, speeding up the closure process. This process was only slightly affected when lambs were fed immunoglobulin-free powdered milk.Lambs survived with concentrations of serum immunoglobulin as low as 5 zinc sulphate turbidity units. Similar and satisfactory mean early growth rates were observed for lambs given ovine and bovine colostrum and bovine serum, whilst those given ovine and bovine whole blood had relatively low early weight gains. Those receiving powdered milk substitute followed by ewe colostrum at 8 h post partumshowed intermediate rates of growth.

“…A concentração média de imunoglobulinas em vacas da raça Holandesa começa a diminuir entre o colostro e 12 a 24 horas após o parto, mas, apesar dessa diminuição, a IgG continua sendo a principal imunoglobulina durante a lactação. O conteúdo de IgG no colostro declina rapidamente, de modo que, 16 horas após o parto, a redução chega a 40% (Kruse, 1970). Neste trabalho, houve redução de 25 e 55% 12 e 24 horas após o parto, respectivamente, com médias de concentração elevadas (87,03 e 52,71 mg/mL).…”

IGF-I e IgG séricos e nas secreções lácteas em vacas tratadas com rbST no período pré-parto

RESUMO -Foram utilizadas 42 vacas holandesas gestantes e multíparas, distribuídas ao acaso em dois grupos, com o objetivo de se determinar possíveis alterações na concentração de IGF-I no colostro e nas secreções lácteas em resposta a mudanças na concentração sérica de IGF-I pré-parto, além de se avaliar comparativamente a flutuação sérica pré-parto de IGF-I em relação a IgG. O grupo tratado (n=21) recebeu 500 mg de somatotropina bovina recombinante (rbST) e o grupo controle (n=21) injeções de vitamina E. Os tratamentos foram iniciados 35 dias pré-parto e repetidos a cada 14 dias até o parto. Semanalmente, até o parto, avaliou-se o escore corporal (EC) e coletaram-se amostras de sangue da veia mamária. Foram amostrados o colostro e as secreções lácteas diariamente por sete dias pós-parto. O EC e a concentração sérica de ácidos graxos não-esterificados não diferiram entre os grupos. O grupo rbST apresentou maiores concentrações séricas de IGF-I na segunda e quarta semanas após o início dos tratamentos, não sendo encontradas diferenças entre os tratamentos ao parto. A concentração de IGF-I foi superior no colostro das vacas tratadas com rbST, não diferindo nas secreções subseqüentes. As concentrações séricas de IgG não diferiram entre tratamentos durante todo o período experimental, assim como as do colostro e demais secreções lácteas. As concentrações séricas de IGF-I e IgG variaram em função do período experimental, diferindo na amplitude e refletindo as grandes mudanças que ocorrem no último mês de gestação.Palavras-chave: colostro, fator de crescimento semelhante à insulina-I, imunoglobulinas, somatotropina IGF-I and IgG Serum Concentrations and in Mammary Secretions in Cows Treated with rbST PrepartumABSTRACT -Forty-two Holstein cows, pregnants and multiparous, wereassigned randomly to two groups to determine the possible alterations of IGF-I concentration in colostro and mammary secretions by changes in pre-partum blood serum IGF-I concentration, and also to compare its temporal changes with the serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) in pre-partum period. The treated group (n=21) received 500 mg of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST), and the control group (n=21) vitamin E injections. The treatments had been initiated 35 days prepartum and repeated each 14 days until partum. Weekly it was evaluated body condition scores and was collected blood by mammary venepuncture until partum. Colostrum and mammary secretions were collected daily for seven days pos-partum. Body condition scores and nonesterified fatty acid concentration did not differ between the groups. To the rbST group IGF-I concentration was superior on second and fourth weeks after the treatment had been initiated. However, no treatment differences were found at partum. Concentration of IGF-I was superior in colostrum of cows treated with rbST, but it did not differ in subsequent mammary secretions. IgG serum concentration did not differ between treatments during the experimental period, neither in colostrum and subsequent mammary secretions. IGF-I and IgG...

“…This adequate colostrum density provides more than 45 g/L of IgG necessary for a minimal ingestion of 100 g of IgG recommended for adequate passive immunity transfer [2,20]. The lower colostrum density observed in 5 HF primiparous could largely be related to the parity and breed of the cows [8,21].…”

Abstract:The purpose of this study was to evaluate, under field conditions, the efficacy of an european registered bovine concentrated lactoserum (Locatim) in 3 farms with neonatal diarrhoea in calves. A total of 117 healthy Belgian Blue (BB) calves were allocated in 2 groups. Two thirds of the calves received Locatim orally immediately after birth and maternal colostrum one hour later (treated group), while control calves only received maternal colostrum. Every day during 14 days, mental status, faeces consistency, suckling reflex and hydration status of each calf were monitored. Individual blood samples were assessed for passive transfer and specific Escherichia coli antibodies against strains F5, CS31A, F17 and F41. Faecal samples from diarrheic and non diarrheic calves were analysed for rotavirus, bovine coronavirus, Cryptosporidium parvum and Escherichia coli F5. Locatim had no significant effect on the onset, duration and incidence of diarrhoea. The mean serum IgG concentration of 23.1 ± 7.8 mg/ml indicates a good IgG transfer. Only the CS31A strain titer was significantly higher in the treated group. The major identified causative agent of diarrhoea was C. parvum. In conclusion, Locatim only has a slight effect when IgG transfer is optimal, but could be justified when specific antibodies lacking in colostrum are needed.
