| Abstract | ||
| Abstract Camel colostrum, the first secretion from the mammary glands following parturition, is a unique biological fluid distinguished by its superior nutritional and immunological content . In the first day after postpartum, camel colostrum contain high levels of immunoglobulins reaching (20-50 g/L), another immuno protein and lactoferrin, is approximately (1-2g/L). The fat content may reach to(25-26%).Lactose is initially low2-3%.Vitamins A and E are concentrated in early colostrum. This report aims to give a complete analysis of the qualities of camel colostrum, with a focus on its therapeutic and preventive effects, as well as important differences between it and mature camel milk and bovine colostrum. The report studies the chemical and physical components of colostrum, such as immune proteins, growth factors, and bioactive substances, in order to clarify how they enhance immunity and prevent inflammation and illnesses. Furthermore, it investigates the potential therapeutic applications of colostrum in human health (children, immunocompromised individuals, the elderly) and animal health, as well as its expanding economic importance in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. The study finds that camel colostrum is an important resource for therapeutic and immunological purposes, and it recommends additional research and industrial development to fully benefit on its unique features. | ||
