The aim of this study was to estimate the influence of the presence of added natural zeolites on the degree of absorption of colostral IgG (immunoglobulin G) in newborn piglets. The experimental groups were fed colostrum and a mineral adsorbent preparation was given per os at a total concentration of about 5 g/l colostral intake per day divided into two of four doses. The data from this investigation show that oral intake of a preparation of mineral adsorbent in concentration of about 5 g/l colostral intake per day leads to a significantly higher degree of absorption of colostral IgG (immunoglobulin G) in newborn piglets.
