Urinary 5-L-oxoproline was measured in term and preterm infants from shortly after birth until
6 weeks of postnatal age to determine their ability to synthesise glycine. In term infants the …

We hypothesized that a limitation in the endogenous formation of glycine might constrain
catch-up growth during recovery from severe childhood malnutrition. The urinary excretion of …

Urinary 5-L-oxoproline was measured during normal pregnancies in Southampton, England
and Kingston, Jamaica. The CV of 5-L-oxoproline excretion in urine, determined over 7 d in …

The urinary excretion of 5‐oxoproline, which may be used as an index of glycine status, was
investigated in 30 normal pregnant women during different stages of pregnancy and in 18 …

The amino acids have been examined in 273 specimens of urine from 119 infants, aged
from a few hours to 8 months. sixty of these specimens have been examined for sugars. In …

The daily urinary excretion of endogenous hydroxyproline is believed to be a reliable index
of collagen turnover, particularly the collagen matrix of bone (Ziff et al., 1956; Prockop and …

Extract: The mean daily urinary excretion of hydroxyproline on the first day of life was 4.4
mg/24 h for 50full-term normal infants, 3.5 mg/24 h for 17 full-term infants with intrauterine …

A one‐year‐old girl with chronic metabolic acidosis was found to have normal renal acidi‐
