General description

IgG antibody subtype is the most abundant serum immunoglobulins of the immune system. It is secreted by B cells and is found in blood and extracellular fluids and provides protection from infections caused by bacteria, fungi and viruses. Maternal IgG is transferred to fetus through the placenta that is vital for immune defence of the neonate against infections. IgG from porcine serum specifically recognizes IgG from pig. Pig IgG is purified from normal pig serum by fractionation and ion-exchange chromatography. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is part of the immunoglobulin family. The primary structure of this antibody contains disulfide bonds involved in linking the two heavy chains, linking the heavy and light chains and resides inside the chains.

Application

IgG from porcine serum may be used in quantitative ELISA, a concentration of 0.5 μg/ml may be used as standard. Concentrations ranging from 3.9 to 250 ng/ml were used as standards in immune response measurements. Pig IgG was also used as standard in surface plasmon resonance phase imaging studies.

Numerous pediatric neurogenetic diseases may be optimally treated by in utero gene therapy (IUGT); but advancing such treatments requires animal models that recapitulate developmental physiology relevant to humans. One disease that could benefit from IUGT is the autosomal recessive motor

The use of therapeutic antibodies for the treatment of neurological diseases is of increasing interest. Nose-to-brain drug delivery is one strategy to bypass the blood brain barrier. The neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) plays an important role in transepithelial transcytosis of

Normal piglets weaned onto soy- or egg-based diets generated antibody responses to fed protein. Concurrent infection with transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) did not affect the responses to dietary antigens at weaning, nor did it affect the subsequent development of tolerance.
