  • Title: Salicylamide glucuronide formation in newborn babies with G-6-PD deficiency.
    Author: Meloni T, Costa S, Corti R, Cutillo S.
    Journal: Biol Neonate; 1978; 33(3-4):189-92. PubMed ID: 567069.
    Abstract:
    Salicylamide glucuronide formation has been studied in 23 newborn babies with erythrocyte G-6-PD deficiency and in 15 normal newborns on the first day of life. Glucuronide formation was significantly lower (p less than 0.001) in the former in comparison with the controls. In the newborns with G-6-PD deficiency who subsequently became hyperbilirubinemic an even lower mean glucuronide formation was observed (p less than 0.01) in respect to the non-jaundiced G-6-PD-deficient newborns.
