Levels of beta-trace protein and lysozyme in human amniotic fluids

Levels of beta-trace protein and lysozyme in human amniotic fluids

M Adinolfi et al. Experientia. .

Abstract

The levels of beta-trace protein and lysozyme were estimated in amniotic fluids from normal fetuses and from fetuses with neuraltube defects. The values of these proteins in normal amniotic fluids were found to be similar to those detected in fetuses with anencephaly and spina bifida. The levels of lysozyme were shown to be correlated with gestational age.
