“…Also, the obtained results are higher than that found by Abd El -Fattah et al (2012) who found that bovine colostrum contained 1.196 mg/ml lactoferrin and 32.33 mg/ml IgG. Aydogdu and Guzelbektes (2018) found that the protein, fat and IgG levels in bovine colostrum were 16.51-18.12%, 5.44 -7.46% and 73.81 -117.45 g/l, respectively. There was a positive correlation among colostrum IgG and total protein.…”

The aim of this work was to study the effect of adding bovine colostrum and date syrup as natural ingredients on the nutritional value of yoghurt and it's quality during cold storage period. Functional yoghurt was prepared by using buffalo milk 3% fat, date syrup 5% for all treatments except the control and bovine colostrum was added at different ratios 5% (T2), 10% (T3) and 15% (T4). Then, all treatments were inoculated with 2% of yoghurt starter and stored at 5°C for 12 days. Samples of yoghurt were chemically, organoleptically, and microbiologically analyzed at 1 st , 4 th , 8 th and 12 th days of cold storage. It was observed that addition of date syrup and bovine colostrum for yoghurt were found to enhance significantly the content of total Solids (TS), total protein, immunoglobulin G (IgG), lactoferrin and minerals compared to the control. Also, most nutrients hade a slight increment during advanced storage period. The titratable acidity% of yoghurt samples slightly increased during storage periods, while the pH values decreased significantly. Yoghurt fortified with 10% (T3) and 15% (T4) of bovine colostrum had significantly higher viscosity values than that in the other treatments. Also, T4 had significantly lower syneresis than the other yoghurt treatments on 12 th day of storage. No significant differences could be traced in flavour, appearance, body and texture and overall acceptability scores among all yoghurt treatments. The grams consumed of yoghurt to meet the daily requirement (GDR) for children aged 1-3 years of protein and (calcium, phosphorus, iron and zinc) significantly decreased by fortification of yoghurt with date syrup and bovine colostrum, while percent satisfaction (P.S.%/100g) of the daily needs in these nutrients significantly increased. In conclusion, fortification of yoghurt by adding date syrup and bovine colostrum enhanced nutritional value and quality of yoghurt.

“…GGT is found in very low concentrations in the blood of newborn calves but is rapidly absorbed from the colostrum before the gut closes, and hence, is a good indicator of colostrum ingestion (Braun et al ., 1982; Weaver et al ., 2000). The level of GGT has been also proposed as an indicator of passive immunity transfer (Parish et al ., 1997; Wilson et al ., 1999; Aydogdu and Guzelbektes, 2018). Different GGT thresholds for FPIT have been suggested (Perino et al ., 1993; Parish et al ., 1997; Hogan et al ., 2015; Cuttance et al ., 2017 a ), but the threshold is yet to be firmly established (Cuttance et al ., 2019).…”

Provision of good quality colostrum is essential for the passive immunity and nutrition of newborn calves. In order to better predict the quality of colostrum and the transfer of passive immunity, the relationships between colostrum components and between calf serum components were examined in this study. Samples of bulk tank milk, colostrum pooled from several cows 0–4 d postpartum, and colostrum collected from individual cows twice daily for 3 d post-partum were compared. With the exception of fat percentage, there were strong correlations between the levels of the components in the pooled colostrum and in the individual cow colostrum collected 0–1 d postpartum. The correlations between total solids as measured by Brix refractometry and total protein, immunoglobulin G (IgG), lactose % and protein % in colostrum within 1 d postpartum and pooled colostrum were 0.92, 0.90, −0.88 and 0.98, respectively. These high correlations enabled these colostrum components to be accurately predicted from Brix % and therefore, the volume of colostrum required to feed neonate calves can be optimised based on Brix refractometry to avoid failure of passive immunity transfer. To assess whether the components obtained from colostrum were correlated in calf blood, newborn calves were separated from their dams before suckling and blood sampled before feeding (day 0), and on days 1 and 7, after receiving colostrum or milk twice a day. The correlations between glucose, total protein, IgG, and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) levels in the calf blood were lower than the correlations observed between the colostrum components. The highest correlation was between serum protein measured by refractometer and serum IgG within one week postpartum. GGT activity was not a good indicator of serum IgG levels. However, serum protein refractometer measurements predicted serum IgG level with high accuracy, providing an on-farm test to determine that calves have received sufficient passive immunity and colostrum components.

“…The mean birth weight of calves from control group was 38 kg and calves from experimental group -36 kg. Therefore, at every feeding colostrum were given in amount of 2 liters that made up 5 % of body weight (Aydogdu et al, 2018).…”

Effects of additional colostrum feeding on the levels of protein fractions in calves’ serum

206E. Wojtas et al.: Colostrum feeding and the levels of protein fractions in calves' serum, Mljekarstvo 69 (3), 206-210 (2019) scientiFic note | AbstractThe aim of this study was to investigate the impact of additional colostrum feeding to new born calves on levels of selected serum protein fractions. The study was conducted on a commercial dairy farm. Twenty-four cows of Polish Holstein-Friesian breed and their calves were included in the trial. Chemical composition, the somatic cell count (SCC), the total bacteria count (TBC) and immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentration were determined in colostrum samples. Blood was collected via jugular vein puncture from a total of 24 calves at the 36 th hour of life. Total serum protein (TSP), as well as its fractions (albumins, globulins) and IgG concentration were determined. Greater IgG, total protein, albumins and globulins concentrations were found in serum of calves fed colostrum four times compared with three times on the first day of life. It was concluded that increasing the number of colostrum feedings to four times can be beneficial to forming of passive immunity of newborn calves.
