Feeding of infant formula, enriched with porcine plasma, has no effect on responses to Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteremia. Results of Experiment 5 where preterm pigs were infused with Staphylococcus epidermidis (SE) on day 4, after infusion of maternal plasma at birth, and then fed infant formula supplemented with porcine plasma powder (SE-PP) or whey protein (SE-IF). (A) Body temperature 0–24 h post inoculation. (B) Motor activity, shown as the fraction of time with physical movements at 0–24 h post inoculation. (C) Total blood leucocyte counts 0–24 h post inoculation. (D) Lymphocyte counts in blood, 0–24 h post inoculation (E) Abundance of SE in blood at euthanasia, shown colony-forming units per milliliter of whole blood. (F) Plasma levels of porcine immunoglobulin G (IgG) at euthanasia. (A–F) Presented as means with corresponding standard errors. ϕ: Effect of PP (p < 0.05).
