Evaluation of the differences in proteomics of high-quality bovine colostrum and low-quality bovine colostrum.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Although there are studies on colostrum and milk proteomics of different species in the literature, there is no published report about different quality bovine colostrums' proteomics.

Objectives

The aim of this study was to compare the proteome content of high- and low-quality bovine colostrums for the first time.

Methods

Colostrum samples were collected from 32 Holstein cows from the same farm that had just calved. Brix% levels of colostrums were measured, and then, those with a Brix% value of ≥27% were classified as high-quality and those with a Brix% value of <22% as low-quality. Three samples from high-quality and low-quality colostrums were selected and proteomic analyses were performed by pooling separately.

Results

Totally 95 proteins were ide
