Abstract

The study involved the determination of the total cholesterol level and total
protein in maternal blood during delivery (90 samples) and comparison with cord
blood for new born (90 samples).The study illustrated that there is no correlation
between the total cholesterol levels in maternal blood and cord blood (r = 0.185) as
well as with the level of total protein ( r = 0.151).
The differences are significant (P < 0.01) between total cholesterol levels in
maternal blood in average of (180.3 ± 22.42) mg/dl and its levels in cord blood in
average of (156.75 ± 11.84) mg/dl.But for total protein levels there is no significant
difference ( P > 0.01) between maternal blood and their new borns which became
(6.36 ± 0.73) gm/dl and (7.35 ± 0.86) gm/dl , respectively.
