The colostrometer is a tool which enables evaluate the quality of colostrum Based on the linear relationship between the immunoglobulin concentration and its density . It allows to evaluate the quality of the colostrum before being administered to the calves and to be able to reduce the risk of a failure in the transfer of passive immunity , due to the use of low-quality colostrum.

The importance of the administration of colostrum to the calf.
The consumption of colostrum provides the newborn calf with the transfer of passive immunity from mother to calf. This is essential since during pregnancy the offspring do not acquire antibodies, as a consequence, these animals are born with an inactive immune system and it is much more complicated for them to create defenses against diseases. Quality colostrum includes sufficient antibodies and a high fat content that provides the animal with energy.
