The Immunologic Behavior of Baby Pigs

III. Transplacental Transfer or Antibody Globulin in Swine¹

From the Department of Veterinary Pathology and Hygiene, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois

Abstract

Using newborn and 3-week-old colostrum-deprived pigs from actively immunized sows, both indirect and direct evidence for transplacental transfer of antibodies was obtained. In addition, the finding of specific antibodies in the sera of newborn colostrum-deprived pigs from a passively immunized sow is offered as conclusive proof of transplacental transfer of antibodies in swine.
