MATERNAL AND FETAL INDICATORS OF OXIDATIVE STRESS DURING INTRAUTERINE GROWTH RETARDATION (IUGR)
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical Biochemistry - Year 2006, Vol 21, Issue 1
Abstract
The present study demonstrates the possibility of increased lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation in both maternal and fetal erythrocytes as markers of oxygen radical activity during intrauterine growth retardation. The erythrocyte MDA levels were significantly elevated in mothers of IUGR babies when compared to controls (p
