Detection of specific antibody producing cells in porcine colostrum by in ovo translation of their mRNA.
An improved method is described for the determination of antibody producing cells in sows colostrum. The test system comprises in ovo translation of mRNA from swine colostral cells and analysis of the translation products by radioimmunoassay with specific antibodies and antigen.
