Implication

This scoping review highlights the importance of secondary colostrum components in calf development, indicating a need for better management strategies.

Key Points

  • This review aims to quantify and analyze the effects of secondary components in colostrum on neonatal calf physiology and metabolism.
  • Reviewed 15 sources published from January 2000 to April 2025
  • Analyzed secondary colostrum components across different milkings
  • Examined the roles of cytokines, oligosaccharides, fatty acids, and growth factors
  • Identified critical roles of secondary colostrum components for calf development
  • Quantified declines in metabolites like IgG, cytokines, and growth factors from colostrum to mature milk
  • Highlighted limited research on the comprehensive effects of secondary components across successive milkings
