Thadepalli et al. 30 reported that amniotic fluid inhibited in vitro growth of Escherichia coli in the presence of low iron concentration and iron-saturation of transferrin, but had a non-inhibitory effect when iron concentration was elevated and iron-saturation of transferrin was more than 50%. Thus, the higher the iron-saturation of ...

What Amniotic Fluid Looks Like and Does
Amniotic fluid should be odorless or have a slightly sweet odor. Give your healthcare provider a call if you notice that it smells bad, as this could be a sign of an infection in your uterus. Amniotic fluid is clearer than urine and not cloudy or thick like vaginal discharge. Also, it typically smells sweeter than other types of discharge.

Amniotic fluid had less than 1.8 μmol/l iron and 2.0 μg/l ferritin. The concentration of iron in coelomic fluid increased significantly when gestation advanced from the close of the embryonic period (7–9 weeks) to the start of the fetal growth period (9–11 weeks). The respective amounts of iron were 3.8 and 5.9 μmol/l (P < 0001). Fetal ...

Low amniotic fluid: Can it be treated?
Low amniotic fluid, also called oligohydramnios, is a serious condition. It happens when the amount of amniotic fluid is less than expected for a baby's gestational age. There's no treatment that can completely correct this condition. But short-term treatment options are available and can be helpful in certain situations.

The content of iron in the fetal serum dropped from day 21 to day 28 of gestation. The iron concentration in the placental tissue decreased during this time. A rise of the iron level in the amniotic fluid was determined from day 21 to day 28 of gestation. The iron content in the milk was about 33 mumol/l (first and second day of lactation).

Oligohydramnios can also occur because the patient's amniotic membrane has ruptured and amniotic fluid is leaking out of the uterus. Polyhydramnios. The normal fetus is constantly swallowing amniotic fluid and urinating to create more fluid. If the fetus is unable to swallow the typical amounts of amniotic fluid, this can lead to polyhydramnios.
