[Histonet] silly question about goat serum

[Greg Dobbin]

Hi Emily,
Normal as opposed to immune serum. If a goat outside of a "Specific
Pathogen Free (SPF)" facility were to actually have no Ab's it would be
far from normal! I'm picturing the Boy in a Bubble episode on Seinfeld-
only substitute one kid for another!! LOL (or groan if you prefer).
Enjoy the day folks!
Greg

What exactly does non-immune goat serum mean? The goat hasn't been
exposed
to any specific antigen, therefore it's normal?
