Abstract
Serum lactlc dehydrogenase (SLDH) activity was investigated in a group of 77 pregnant women at term with anemia of pregnancy (Hb under 10 g/dL), and in 61 cord blood samples of their newborns. 107 healthy pregnant women (Hb above 11 g/dL) and 62 cord blood samples from their newborns served as control. No statistically significant difference was found between the two groups as for the SLDH activity. It is possible that the isoenzymes LDH 3 and LDH 4, which are probably of pl2.cental origin, are affected during pregnancy, but the study of these isoenzymes will make the subject of a future investigation.
