Purification and partial characterization of peroxidase from human term placenta of non-smokers: metabolism of benzo(a)pyrene-7, 8-dihydrodiol.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Maternal risk factors associated with placenta previa are well documented in the literature. However, there are limited studies identifying maternal characteristics associated with the persistence of placenta previa. The objective of the study was to determine maternal characteristics associated with the p...
