Abstract

The brown-tinted amniotic fluid of an Rh-negative mother, after artificial insemination with Rh-negative donor semen, was shown to contain metheme pigments. Although the spectrophotometric evaluation (ΔOD₄₅₀) of the contaminated fluid was normal, the chemically determined bilirubin concentration correctly indicated the presence of hemolytic disease of the fetus, which was later shown to be Rh positive.
