A study on 100 pregnant women regarding foetomaternal haemorrhage (FMH) in relation to mode of delivery with Kleihauer acid-elution technique revealed that FMH was affected by mode of delivery. Incidence of FMH was nil in normal spontaneous delivery without syntocinon drip but the incidence of FMH in normal delivery preceded by syntocinon drip was 19.05%, in forceps delivery 40%, in lower uterine caesarean section 50% and in normal delivery followed by manual removal of placenta 100%. The incidence of FMH was more in postpartum period (16%) than that in antenatal period (8%).

An attempt has been made in the present study to look for the activity of the enzymes which catalyse the breakdown of phosphorylated metabolites both in acidic and alkaline pH from human foetal brain, in different gestational ages during development in 18 foetal samples. It was revealed that phosphatases were distributed throughout the brain and were operative from the onset of development. There was a tendency of increment of specific activity of enzymes with respect to the advancement of gestational period. This observation should be accounted as a prerequisite criteria for understanding phosphate meatabolism in human foetal organs primarily associated with glycolytic and gluconeogenic pathways.
