  • Title: Characterization of a new alpha-glycoprotein as the major serum component in later fetal and newborn pigs.
    Author: Lampreave F, Piñeiro A.
    Journal: Comp Biochem Physiol B; 1982; 72(2):215-9. PubMed ID: 6180861.
    Abstract:
    1. Using crossed immunoelectrophoresis, fetuin, alpha-fetoprotein, albumin, transferrin, alpha1-antitrypsin and a fetospecific-like alpha-glycoprotein, were identified as the main serum components in fetal pig (Sus scrofa domesticus). 2. Fetuin was found to be a trypsin inhibitor, but not a chymotrypsin inhibitor. 3. The fetospecific-like alpha-glycoprotein, not previously reported, accounted for 50% of the total serum proteins in newborn pigs. This protein, however, was a minor component of the adult serum.
