Investigation of pregnancy-related changes in red cell 2,3-diphosphoglycerate

J C McCullogh et al. Clin Chim Acta. .

Abstract

Significant gestational changes in red cell 2,3-DPG were found. No significant correlation was found between these pregnancy-related changes and alterations in the parameters of iron metabolism or red cell enzymes during the same gestational period. Possible reasons for the high concentration found at 21--24 weeks gestation are discussed.
