Applications of IgY in Veterinary Medicine

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
IgY-Technology: Production and Application of Egg Yolk Antibodies

Abstract

Animal health and welfare is under constant threat from pathogenic organisms and there is need to move from the use of antibiotics as a first line of defence. The oral administration of IgY antibodies constitutes a powerful passive immune strategy and has been used in terrestrial and aquatic animals. The prevention and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases, particularly diarrhoea from different infectious agents in livestock and dogs, is one of the most studied uses of IgY for passive protection. The use of IgY for the treatment of calves, adult cattle, pigs and poultry is described. One of the major factors impacting on the productivity of aquaculture is the outbreak of disease and there is a need for development of treatments suitable for an aqueous environment. IgY used in the treatment of dogs is also expanding. Finally, the use of IgY in the detection of disease is outlined.
