  • Title: Urinary thromboxane B2 and 2,3-dinor-thromboxane B2 in the neonate born at full-term age.
    Author: Van Geet C, Arnout J, Eggermont E, Vermylen J.
    Journal: Eicosanoids; 1990; 3(1):39-43. PubMed ID: 2328133.
    Abstract:
    We have developed a method for measurement of urinary 2,3-dinor-TXB2, which is a reflection of the actual rate of TXA2 synthesis by platelets in vivo. This determination was based on purification by high-pressure liquid chromatography and on measurement by RIA. After validation of the assay, we established the range of urinary Tx metabolites in healthy infants born at full-term during their first week of life. The 2,3-dinor-TXB2 levels were higher than in adults and declined gradually during the first seven days of life.
