their kids. Colostrum samples were taken from the goats in three repetitions
(at birth, at 24th and 48th hours after birth). Changes in IgA, IgM, and IgG
levels were examined individually in 33 (11 x 3) colostrum samples taken at
birth and 24th and 48th hours after birth. </span> </p> <p> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:2pt;text-align:justify;"> <b> <span lang="en-gb" style="font-size:8pt;font-family:’Myriad Pro’, sans-serif;letter-spacing:-.1pt;" xml:lang="en-gb">Results: </span> </b> <span lang="en-gb" style="font-size:8pt;font-family:’Myriad Pro’, sans-serif;letter-spacing:-.1pt;" xml:lang="en-gb"> IgA, IgM and IgG levels at birth and 24 and 48 hours after birth for
Saanen goats were 0.11-1.98-1.88 mg/ml, 0.28-0.95-14.01 mg/ml and
0.25-0.96-13.53 mg/ml, respectively. The IgA, IgM, IgG levels of kids at birth,
24, and 48 hours after birth were 0.76-1.11-19.22 mg/ml, 0.58-1.02-18.42 mg/ml
and 0.53-1.24-21.60 mg/ml, respectively. The effect of birth type and gender
and parity on IgA, IgM, and IgG levels were not significant, while the effect
of the time-dependent change was linearly and quadratically significant (P
<0.01). </span> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:2pt;text-align:justify;"> <b> <span lang="en-gb" style="font-size:8pt;font-family:’Myriad Pro’, sans-serif;letter-spacing:-.1pt;" xml:lang="en-gb">Conclusion: </span> </b> <span lang="en-gb" style="font-size:8pt;font-family:’Myriad Pro’, sans-serif;letter-spacing:-.1pt;" xml:lang="en-gb"> In the colostrum secreted in the postpartum period in goats, it is
