Abstract

The aim of this study determine of some biochemical parameters in serum of pregnant women. The possibility of using these parameters as an indicator of duration of pregnancy. This study was conducted on 75 of blood samples from healthy pregnant women , from 1/2 /2016 to 30/6/2016 divided into three groups. aged (17 – 43 ) years , and the study samples comparad with 25 sample for healthy women not pregnant as a control. A comparison in hematological parameters between the three groups with each other and with the control showed there was a significant difference in total count white blood cell between the three groups and the control (P≤0.05) and the highest level was in group III. Respect to Hb and PCV% t results showed low significant in Group III when compared with groups I and II. The result of study showed a non-significant (p≤0.05) in total protein of all studied groups and control group , albumin were significantly decreased in the groups II and III compared to non-pregnant women, but there was no significant difference between the three groups in globulin and glucose(RSG). The activity of catalase and uric acid concentration were significantly lower in pregnant women in the groups I,II and III as compared to control group.
