The Comparison of Maternal Endometritis in Meconium – Stained Amniotic Fluid and Clear Amniotic Fluid

Introduction: Metritis is one of the causes of maternal morbidity and there are many risk factors for it. Because of the importance of possible association of meconium-stained amniotic fluid and maternal metritis the present study was done to determine whether meconium stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) is associated with puerperal infection. Methods: In this case-control study 150 women with MSAF a...

Amniotic fluid cell cultures.

In an 18-month period, 249 samples of amniotic fluid were used experimentally in attempts to enhance success in cell cultures. None ofthe experimental situations proved entirely satisfactory in this aim. Emphasis is laid on the quality ofserum used in culture. Particularly satisfactory serum should be retained for use in amniotic fluid cell cultures which are dependent on unknown growth stimula...
