title: [Normal values of osteocalcin in the blood over the course of life].
abstract: This study tends to settle the standard values of BGP circulating amount, which - attesting osteoblastic activity - varies according life periods. The lowest amounts are to be found in twenty five to forty five years adults; though varying all the day and night long, these amounts remain included between 3-7 ng/ml; particularly if the blood-test took place between 8 and 10 a.m.
