Colostrum milk at 48 to 72 hours after parturition may be higher than in colostrum or in late-lactation milk. Fat concentration in bovine colostrum is extremely variable. Newborns have very immature and small digestive systems, and colostrum delivers its nutrients in a very concentrated low-volume form. It has a mild laxative effect, encouraging the passing of the baby's first stool, which is called meconium. This clears excess bilirubin, a waste-product of dead red blood cells, which is produced in large quantities at birth due to blood volume reduction from the infant's body and helps prevent jaundice. Colostrum is known to contain
Invariant of a binary form invariant polynomials on "V". Invariants of a binary form of degree "n" correspond to taking "V" to be the ("n" + 1)-dimensional irreducible representation, and covariants correspond to taking "V" to be the sum of the irreducible representations of dimensions 2 and "n" + 1. The invariants of a binary form form a graded algebra, and proved that this algebra is finitely generated if the base field is the complex numbers. Forms of degrees 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 are sometimes called quadrics, cubic, quartics, quintics, sextics, septics or septimics, octics or octavics, nonics, and decics
