Scientometric analysis and perspective of IgY technology study.

ABSTRACT: Egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) is a class of antibody that is produced in birds against pathogens. Therefore, hyperimmunization of birds can produce a specific antibody in the egg against target antigen for a wide range of applications in diagnostic, prophylactic or treatment in human and veterinary medicine which is known today as IgY technology. Until now, the number of articles, patents and clinical studies on IgY technology has increased significantly. Hence, there is a fact that scientometric studies are needed to gain a deeper understanding of the research for the commercialization of IgY technology. Until now, no scientometric research has been directed toward IgY technology. In view of this, we conducted scientometric analysis in the WoS database. A total of 1,029 IgY-related papers
