What is Immunoglobulins in Dairy Science about?

This document summarizes immunoglobulins (antibodies) found in milk and colostrum. The major immunoglobulin classes in bovine and human milk are IgG, IgM, and IgA. Concentrations vary between species, stage of lactation, and health status. Immunoglobulins provide protection against pathogens for offspring. Their structure consists of light and heavy chains that form antigen binding sites. IgG is the dominant class in bovine milk and blood, while IgA dominates in human milk and IgM in bovine colostrum.
