title: [The antibacterial activity of amniotic fluid with a correlation between zinc phosphorus concentrations (author's transl)].
abstract: Antibacterial activity of 22 amniotic fluids collected at different stage of pregnancy have been tested against different types of staphylococci: 209 P, 2961 and Escherichia Coli OMS and 83. At the same time zinc and phosphorus concentration in these fluids have been measured. 77 p. 100 of those fluids present an antibacterial activity, but no correlation has been found with their concentration in zinc and phosphorus. Probably this activity is multifactorial and further studies need to be done to identify the factor or factors responsible for that antibacterial activity.
