title: [Reference values for plasma amino acids in the course of pregnancy].
abstract: Reference values for 26 plasma amino acids were determined by ion exchange chromatography in 29 healthy pregnant women (1st to 3rd trimenon). The results are given as P50 (P7-P93). In the course of pregnancy the concentrations of amino acids generally decrease. Threonine, however, shows a distinct, statistically significant increase. The interindividual concentration ranges are low and they show little change in the course of pregnancy. The data presented here are relevant for dietary treatment of metabolic disorders, e.g. maternal phenylketonuria in pregnants.
