title: [Some enzymatic activities of the amniotic fluid in human beings (LAP, GGTP, SGOT, SGPT, acid and alkaline phosphatases, 5' nucleotidase, amylase, beta-glucuronidase and aldolase)].
abstract: Quantitative analyses of 10 enzymes (LAP, GGTP, SGOT, SGPT. acid and alkaline phosphatases, 5' nucleotidase, amylase. beta-glucuronidase and aldolase) in a series of 50 samples of amniotic fluid gave widely-scattered results. In some cases, it was possible to relate high enzymatic activity to a pathological condition, in other cases, the amniotic fluid examined seemed to come from normal, full-term or almost full-term pregnancies without particular signs.
