Bovine IgG ELISA Kit

Bovine IgG ELISA Kit

Bovine Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the main antibody class found in the serum and colostrum of cattle, functioning as a critical component of the adaptive immune system. It plays a central role in recognizing and neutralizing pathogens, providing long-term protection against infections. In newborn calves, IgG is acquired almost exclusively through the absorption of maternal antibodies from colostrum shortly after birth, since there is no transplacental antibody transfer. Therefore, the concentration of IgG in calf serum serves as an essential biomarker of passive immune transfer and overall neonatal health. Low IgG levels are strongly associated with failure of passive transfer (FPT), leading to higher morbidity and mortality rates in calves.

The Bovine IgG ELISA Kit is a highly specific and sensitive immunoassay designed for the quantitative detection of IgG in bovine serum, plasma, milk, or colostrum. In research settings, it is used to study immune responses to infections, vaccination efficacy, antibody production kinetics, and maternal antibody transfer. In clinical and veterinary practice, the kit is valuable for assessing the adequacy of colostrum feeding, diagnosing FPT in neonatal calves, and monitoring immune status in both individual animals and herds. By providing reliable quantitative data, the assay supports disease prevention strategies, enhances herd health management, and aids in improving productivity and animal welfare through early immune assessment.
