The gastrointestinal tract of neonatal calves is relatively mature but still requires
morphological and functional changes. The intake of colostrum with its nutrient and non …

Milk and colostrum have high biological potential, and due to their natural origin and non-
toxicity, they have many uses in cosmetics and dermatology. Research is ongoing on their …

In neonatal calves, nutrient intake shifts from continuous glucose supply via the placenta to
discontinuous colostrum and milk intake with lactose and fat as main energy sources …

Simple Summary The post-natal period is a crucial time for all animal species. During the
course of their first two weeks of life, puppies and kittens face several risks to their health …

Neonatal dairy and beef calves are required to ingest adequate volumes of high-quality

Abstract EGF, BTC, IGF-I, IGF-II, TGF-b1, TGF-b2, FGF1 and 2, and PDGF are the main
growth factors present in bovine milk and colostrum. All of these growth factors are also …

Neonatal mammals need adaption to changes in nutrient supply because energy intake
shifts from continuous parenteral supply of nutrients (mainly glucose, lactate, and amino …

For several mammalian species, it has been shown that fetal and early postnatal nutrition
has a role in long-term lipid and glucose metabolism of the offspring, and it thus also may …

The role of colostrum and milk in the neonate has been chiefly recognized as a
comprehensive nutrient foodstuff. In addition, the provision of colostrum—the first milk—for …
