 Plasma Foal IgG Midland Quick Test Kit®  Importance of Colostrum and Antibodies (IgG) in the Newborn Foal Disease Protection Passive IgG protects the foal from disease in it’s first 4-8 weeks of life until it’s own immune system becomes fully functional. Passive immunity is obtained from the mare's 1st and 2nd colostrum. Provision of Growth Factors and Hormones Regulates development of the digestive system in the newborn foal. Nutritional A rich source of minerals and vitamins, protein, fat, casein, and increases the immunoglobulin content for passive immunity. Transfer of Passive Immunity The only source of maternal immunoglobulins (Ig) and antibodies to protect the newborn foal from disease is obtained in its first 18-24 hours of life. A Simple and Fast Method for Identifying IgG Levels in the Newborn Foal Midland BioProducts Corporation® is introducing the Plasma Foal IgG Midland Quick Test Kit®. Once a sample of plasma serum is obtained from the foal, 0.2cc of the sample is pipetted into and mixed with the provided dilution liquid. Next, pipette the diluted plasma serum sample in the Sample (S) well of the test cassette. In approximately 10-20 minutes, the appearance of a horizontal line in the Control (C) position on the strip tells you that the test is working. A line appearing in the Test (T) position will indicate if the IgG in the whole blood sample is a certain amount of IgG in mg/mL. See the diagram below. U.S. Patent 6,245,577 and 6,660,534
