Alkaline RNase activity was measured in plasma and leucocytes of pregnant and non-pregnant women belonging to low and high socio-economic groups. It was observed that the enzyme activities were significantly higher in pregnant as well as non-pregnant women of the low socio-economic group as compared to women of the high socio-economic group. There was no correlation between the enzyme activities in maternal or cord blood on the one hand and birth weight of the infants on the other. These results suggest that RNase activities in maternal blood reflect the nutritional status of the mother but not that of the fetus.
在属于低社会经济群体和高社会经济群体的孕妇和非孕妇的血浆和白细胞中测量了碱性核糖核酸酶活性。据观察，与高社会经济群体的女性相比，低社会经济群体的孕妇和非孕妇的酶活性显著更高。一方面，母体或脐带血中的酶活性与另一方面婴儿的出生体重之间没有相关性。这些结果表明，母体血液中的核糖核酸酶活性反映了母亲的营养状况，而不是胎儿的营养状况。
