Unsupplemented porcine colostrum and milk exhibited a powerful bactericidal effect for porcine strains of E coli incubated in vitro at 37 degrees C. This activity was independent of complement but was susceptible to acid pH, to the presence of soluble iron and to the selective immunoprecipitation of IgG, IgA and IgM. Manifestation of bactericidal activity required bacteria in an active state of metabolism and the length of incubation was an important factor in demonstrating the quality of the anticoli activity, ie, proliferation-inhibitory, bacteriostatic or bactericidal. Whey obtained by acid precipitation or by the application of rennin was devoid of bactericidal activity but was capable of slowing down proliferation of E coli. There was no correlation between lysozyme and anticoli activity although the complete removal of lysozyme by adsorption on to bentonite reduced bactericidal titres. With very few exceptions the highest bactericidal titres were recorded for colostrum, but even 28 days post partum about one half of 22 undiluted milk samples exhibired bactericidal activity.
