title: [Ceruloplasmin determination in the inflammatory reaction and during the last three months of pregnancy : choice of a technique (author's transl)].
abstract: Two methods of ceruloplasmin determination have been tested when this protein reaches its highest levels : inflammatory reaction and the last three months of pregnancy. A very good agreement between a spectrophotometric method based on oxydasis properties of ceruloplasmin and an immunoprecipitation was found in the first case. However during the last months of pregnancy, the data obtained by immunoprecipitation yield low values when compared to spectrophotometry. This results confirmed by experiments with rats indicate that the spectrophotometric method should be preferred in all circumstances.
