Geometric mean isotype-specific Ab titers (GMT) to IND BRV detected daily in feces of a) Gp 1: calves fed control colostrum (CC) followed by BRV egg yolk supplemented milk with a final BRV IgY Ab titer of 4096; b) Gp 2: calves receiving CC followed by CONTROL egg yolk supplemented milk with a final BRV IgY Ab titer <4; c) Gp 3: calves receiving CC and d) Gp 4: colostrum deprived calves, both fed Ab-free milk. All animals were orally inoculated at 2 days of age/36 hours after colostrum intake [0 days post inoculation (0 PID)], and euthanized at 21 PID. SIC, small intestinal contents; and LIC, large intestinal contents, were collected at 21 PID. Columns represent the mean titer of virus shed per day per group (from CCIF assay). Bars represent the mean days of diarrhea duration for each group. Statistical analysis of the Ab titers in feces analyzed every 7 days is detailed in Supplementary material, Table 2 (ANOVA followed by DGC multiple comparison test through time, p<0.05).
