Abstract
A simple and rapid test that correlates with L/S ratios has been developed. By centrifuging fresh, unfrozen amniotic fluids at 200g for 10 minutes and measuring the optical density at at 650 nm, correlation with L/S ratios is obtained. Optical density readings of 0.15 or greater correlate 100% with L/S ratios of 2.0 or greater. Optical readings below 0.15 correlate 94% with L/S ratios below 2.0.Entities:
