Serum indoxyl sulphate and its relation to albumin and α1-acid  glycoprotein as a potential biomarkers of maternal intestinal metabolism  during pregnancy and postpartum.

<h4>Background</h4>Serum indoxyl sulfate (IS) levels depend on the production of indole in the gut. The biological effects of IS in the vascular bed could be confirmed by changes in the levels of individual serum proteins during normal pregnancy and in the postpartum period as compared w...
