Comparative proteomic analysis of low-abundant whey proteins in sow and goat colostrum
Abstract
This study compared the whey proteome of sow colostrum (SC) and goat colostrum (GC) using shotgun proteomics combined with protein equalization techniques (CPLL or ProteoMiner™) to enhance the detection of low-abundance proteins. Colostrum samples were pooled from 11 hand-milked sows (20 mL each, collected at 0 h postpartum), while GC samples (2 liters total) were collected from 50 goats during morning milking on day 1 postpartum. A total of 86 low-abundance proteins (
