Purpose: Bovine Colostrum is the first milk, a mammary secretion produced by all cows for their babies during 24–48 hours after birth. contains immunoglobulins and lactoferrin that help in bactericidal bacteriostatic effects against microorganisms. The purpose of this study to evaluate efficacy bovine colostrum at different concentrations patients suffering from chronic periodontitis. Methodolo...

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to be a global issue that draws worldwide attention. Countries are racing develop vaccines and drugs combat the virus. Immunomodulators used in some of prevention efforts. Any drug or substance affects immune system is classified as an immunomodulator. Bovine colostrum example Colostrum mammary gland’s first secretion after birth, it differs from mature milk cont...

Lactoferrin (Lf) is a bioactive protein present in all external secretions such as milk that plays important role in the innate host defense. Therefore, the Lf has a major role in bovine mammary gland defense during mastitis. In this study, 5’-flanking region of bovine Lf gene containing three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at positions −602 (T/G), −600 (A/G) ...

A wide collection of proteins in relatively low concentrations but with an important biological activity is present in bovine whey. Among them, lactoferrin shows strong bacterial and antiviral properties, preventing the growth of pathogenic organisms in the gut, stimulating the immune system and enhancing iron absorption [1]. Lactoferrin recovery from whey is therefore of great interest since i...

The Bos indicus Vechur breed cow milk is known for its medicinal value and the breed is listed under the category of critically maintained breeds by the Food and Agriculture Organization. The lactoferrin protein in milk is known for its nutritional value. Gene polymorphisms have been reported for Bovine lactoferrin. Mutations in the evolutionarily conserved sites tend to impair protein function...

Lactoferrin (Lf) is a multifunctional protein and an essential element of innate immunity. Cancer is a major killer in today's world accounting for around 13% of all deaths according to the World Health Organisation (W.H.O.). The five most common forms of cancer include lung, colorectal, stomach, liver and breast cancer. Lactoferrin is a natural forming iron-binding glycoprotein with antibacter...
