Comparison of turbidometric immunoassay, refractometry, and gamma‐glutamyl transferase to radial immunodiffusion for assessment of transfer of passive immunity in high‐risk beef calves

Comparison of turbidometric immunoassay, refractometry, and gamma‐glutamyl transferase to radial immunodiffusion for assessment of transfer of passive immunity in high‐risk beef calves

Abstract Background Attainment of adequate transfer of passive immunity (TPI) is critical to health of calves; however, studies comparing available tools for measurement of TPI in individual beef animals are limited. Objectives To report agreement between 4 tests evaluating individual TPI status in...
