Biochemical Profile of Amniotic and Allantoic Fluid During Different Gestational Phases in Mares [PDF]
, 2013 Fetal fluids have different vital functions that sustain both pregnancy and normal parturition. The biochemical composition of amniotic fluid during gestation is not well established; thus the purpose of the present study was to determine the biochemical

Anxiolytic-Like Actions of Fatty Acids Identified in Human Amniotic Fluid
The Scientific World Journal, 2013 Eight fatty acids (C12–C18) were previously identified in human amniotic fluid, colostrum, and milk in similar proportions but different amounts. Amniotic fluid is well known to be the natural environment for development in mammals.

Amniotic fluid brain-specific proteins are biomarkers for spinal cord injury in experimental myelomeningocele [PDF]
, 2005 Myelomeningocele (MMC), the most severe form of spina bifida (SB), causes neurological deficit. Injury to the spinal cord is thought to begin in utero. We investigated whether brain-specific proteins (BSPs) would enable us to monitor the development of ...

The Analgesia-Enhancing Component of\ud Ingested Amniotic Fluid Does Not Affect\ud Nicotine-Induced Antinociception in\ud Naltrexone-Treated Rats [PDF]
, 1997 Ingestion of amniotic fluid and placenta by rats has been shown to enhance opioid-mediated antinociception but not affect the nonopioid-mediated antinociception produced by aspirin, suggesting spccificity for opioid-mediated processes.
