*[[Immunoglobulin G|IgG]] is most abudant in colostrum, followed by [[Immunoglobulin A|[[IgA]]]] and [[Immunoglobulin M|IgM]]

* During the first 30 hours of life, [[Immunoglobulins|immunoglobulins]] are absorbed through the intact [[Jejunum - Anatomy & Physiology|jejunum]] and pass to the lacteals, [[Lymphatic Vessels - Anatomy & Physiology|thoracic duct]] and into the systemic circulation.

* The first diagram (entitled Transfer of [[Immunoglobulin G|IgG]] across intestine via FcRn) shows [[Immunoglobulin G|IgG]] being present in the intestine of a neonate, from the ingestion of colostrum. Fc receptors (FcRn) are present on the surface of the intestinal epithelial cell in neonates for the first 30 hours. The [[Immunoglobulin G|IgG]] binds to the receptors and is transported through the cell by pinocytosis and released into the lacteals unchanged.

Milk is the primary source of nutrition for young before they are able to digest other food.

In non-ruminants [[Immunoglobulin A|'''[[IgA]]''']] is most abundant, followed by [[Immunoglobulin G|IgG]] and [[Immunoglobulin M|IgM]]; [[Immunoglobulin G|'''IgG''']] is most abundant in ruminant milk.

* Milk has approximately 1/100th of the antibody concentration of colostrum.

* Between colostrum and milk there is a period where a substance similar to them both is secreted called transition milk. By approximately 5-7 days milk is being secreted.
