On the origin of amniotic fluid bilirubin.
We studied the relationship between bilirubin concentrations in amniotic fluid and fetal blood in 68 non-hydropic rhesus d-alloimmunized anemic fetuses at first blood sampling. In these alloimmunized fetuses, the amniotic fluid/fetal blood ratio for bilirubin decreased from 0.09 at 28 weeks to 0.05 at 33 weeks. In normal fetuses, amniotic fluid/fetal blood ratios for bilirubin, and for albumin,...
متن کاملProstate-specific antigen immunoreactivity in amniotic fluid.
We examined whether the 33-kDa serine protease prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is present in amniotic fluid and, if so, whether its concentration changes with gestational age. Analyzing 115 amniotic fluids with a highly sensitive immunofluorometric procedure, we found PSA in all the amniotic fluids examined and established that its concentration increases with increasing gestational age from 11...
متن کاملGlial origin of rapidly adhering amniotic fluid cells.
Rapidly adhering cells (RA cells) from the amniotic fluid of a pregnancy with fetal anencephaly were investigated by immunofluorescence assay with an antiserum against glial cells. After 24 hours' cultivation a high proportion of the cells showed positive glial-specific fluorescence, whereas no staining was seen in cells from samples of normal amniotic fluid. At the 24th week the mother was del...
متن کاملThe Comparison of Maternal Endometritis in Meconium – Stained Amniotic Fluid and Clear Amniotic Fluid
Introduction: Metritis is one of the causes of maternal morbidity and there are many risk factors for it. Because of the importance of possible association of meconium-stained amniotic fluid and maternal metritis the present study was done to determine whether meconium stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) is associated with puerperal infection. Methods: In this case-control study 150 women with MSAF a...
متن کاملSearch for Amniotic Fluid-Specific Markers: Novel Biomarker Candidates for Amniotic Fluid Embolism
Objective: Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is a catastrophic syndrome. The amniotic fluid (AF)-specific antigens might be assessed in maternal serum when these proteins abruptly enter maternal circulation. The aims of this study were 1) to review a conventional marker for diagnosis of AFE, and 2) to find AF-specific proteins. Study design: This article reviews the English language literature for ...
