  • Title: Amniotic fluid total proteins, electrophoretic patterns, total amino acids and creatinine in diabetic women.
    Author: Emara SH, El Hawary MF, Abdel-Karim HA.
    Journal: Z Geburtshilfe Perinatol; 1977 Dec; 181(6):432-7. PubMed ID: 74914.
    Abstract:
    Total proteins, total-acids, creatinine and the five major protein-fractions were determined in amniotic fluid of 9 diabetic mothers and 42 normal women. The mean value of the estimated patterns in the diabetic subgroup of living full-term infants was within normal, except a significant decrease in creatinine, albumin and gamma-globulin. A highly significant decrease in albumin, gamma-globulin and total amino acids in the amniotic fluid of those given stillbirth infants (SB), while a significant increase was found in both of total proteins and albumin in cases developed respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). In addition to a significant increase in creatinine, alpha 1-, alpha 2- and beta-globulins in both subgroups of SB and RDS. The A/G ratio of the 3 subgroups were significantly decreased especially those of SB.
