Figure 2

Plasmatic profiles of bPL concentrations and rabbit anti-bPL titers in peripheral circulation of four bovine foetuses. Concentrations of fetal bPL (ng/mL) are represented by black dots. Rabbit anti-bPL titers measured as B/T (bound activity (B) regarding total tracer (T) added) are represented by white circles. Plasma samples from cannulated foetuses (Foetuses 1 to 4) were collected from Days 232 (Foetus 1) to 249 (Foetus 4) of pregnancy until term. Concentrations of bPL were measured by RIA with guinea pig anti-bPL antiserum (AS#276) as primary antibody. Solid line arrows indicate day of infusion of a pool of rabbit anti-bPL IgG into the fetal catheter. Broken line arrow indicates the day of calving.
