In vitro autohaemolysis during pregnancy.
In vitro autohaemolysis with and without the addition of glucose was performed on normal pregnant women chosen at random and on non-pregnant women of comparable age. Autohaemolysis was significantly greater in the pregnant than the nonpregnant. The relationship between the stage of gestation and in vitro autohaemolysis in normal pregnancy may be fitted by a quadratic curve.
