LAND O LAKES® Bovine IgG Colostrum Replacer

Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document discusses the use of LAND O LAKES® Bovine IgG Colostrum Replacer as a supplement or replacement for maternal colostrum in calves. It emphasizes the importance of passive transfer of immunity through colostrum to support a calf's immune system development.

Product Specifications
The colostrum replacer is made from whole bovine colostrum and is available in single-dose pouches or 36-dose pails. It provides essential antibodies, including IgG, to aid in immune system development. The product is licensed and tested by the USDA to ensure it meets standards for treating failure of passive transfer of immunity.

Key Features and Benefits
  • Contains high levels of IgG1 to address enteric and respiratory challenges.
  • Includes natural colostral fat for energy and temperature regulation.
  • Offers a variety of growth factors and hormones for tissue and organ development.
  • Delivers a high concentration of IgG per dose, with options for ≥100 g or ≥200 g IgG.

Usage Recommendations
Testing maternal colostrum with a Brix refractometer is recommended to determine quality. Depending on the Brix reading, the colostrum replacer can be used alone or in conjunction with maternal colostrum:
  • Below 18%: Use colostrum replacer only.
  • 18-22%: Use colostrum replacer with maternal colostrum.
  • 22% or greater: Use maternal colostrum if at least 1 gallon is available per calf.
Calves should receive their first colostrum feeding within 1 hour of birth and a second within 8-12 hours.

Mixing Instructions
Instructions are provided for supplementing or replacing maternal colostrum based on Brix readings. The document includes detailed mixing ratios for water and colostrum replacer powder to achieve the desired IgG intake.

Conclusion
The LAND O LAKES® Bovine IgG Colostrum Replacer is a reliable product for ensuring calves receive adequate passive immunity when maternal colostrum is insufficient or unavailable. Proper usage and mixing instructions are crucial for optimal results.
