Abstract

Lysozyme content of 47 A.F. collected at different stages of pregnancy has been measured. At the same time creatinine concentrations of 33 of those A.F. have been measured. Lysozyme content increases with the progress of the pregnancy. A similar increase is apparent when lysozyme concentration is correlated with A.F. creatinine.
