[Maternal and foetal aminoacidaemia and amino acids contents of amniotic fluid in normal, gestosic and diabetic pregnancy (author's transl)].
The AA. have examined 9 cases of normal pregnancy, 5 cases of E.P.H. gestosis and 5 cases of diabetes mellitus, for which cases caesarean section had been planed, determining the aminogram of the amniotic fluid, of the mother's venous plasma and of the umbilical venous plasma; the 3 samples were performed about contemporaneously. Both in the normal pregnancies and in those complicated by E.P.H. gestosis and by diabetes mellitus, the concentration of amino acids was higher in the umbilical venous plasma than in that of the mother and higher in the latter than in the amniotic fluid, with the exception of glycine, taurine, glutammic acid and aspartic acid in the normal pregnancies, of taurine in the gestosic pregnancies, of taurine, citrulline, glutammic and aspartic acid in the diabetic pregnancies.
