Colostrum immune cells (as lymphocytes) and many antibodies such as IgA, IgG, and IgM. These are some of the components of the adaptive immune system. In preterm infants some IgA may be absorbed through the intestinal epithelium and enter the blood stream though there is very little uptake in full term babies. This is due to the early "closure" of the intestinal epithelium to large molecule uptake in humans unlike the case in cattle which continue to uptake immunoglobulin from milk shortly after birth. Other immune components of colostrum include the major components of the innate immune system, such as lactoferrin,
Prenex normal form Prenex normal form A formula of the predicate calculus is in prenex normal form if it is written as a string of quantifiers and bound variables, called the prefix, followed by a quantifier-free part, called the matrix. Every formula in classical logic is equivalent to a formula in prenex normal form. For example, if formula_1, formula_2, and formula_3 are quantifier-free formulas with the free variables shown then is in prenex normal form with matrix formula_5, while is logically equivalent but not in prenex normal form. Every first-order formula is logically equivalent (in classical logic) to some formula in prenex normal
