	Meconium aspiration syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Meconium is the first stool of an infant, composed of materials ingested during the time the infant spends in the uterus: intestinal epithelial cells, lanugo, mucus, aminotic fluid, bile, and water.
		When meconium staining of the amniotic fluid is present and the baby is born depressed, a pediatrician will often use a laryngoscope and attempt to suction meconium from below the vocal cords.
		In this procedure, a tube is inserted into the uterus through the vagina, and sterile fluid is pumped in to dilute thick meconium.

	Meconium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Meconium (sometimes erroneously spelled merconium) is the first stool of an infant, composed of materials ingested during the time the infant spends in the uterus: intestinal epithelial cells, lanugo, mucus, amniotic fluid, bile, and water.
		Meconium is sterile, unlike later feces, and has no odor.
		Meconium is normally stored in the infant's intestines until after birth, but sometimes it is expelled into the amniotic fluid prior to birth or during labor and delivery.

	Patent 4489166
		The method of claim 24 wherein the content of PEP in said body fluid is determined by comparison of said measured radioactivity with a dose response curve plotted from the results of the radioimmunoassay methods of claim 25 employing as body fluid samples, aqueous solution containing known amounts of said partially purified PEP.
		PEP could not be detected by immunoelectrophoresis or immunodiffusion in the pregnancy or non-pregnancy sera, the extracts of early-, mid- or full-term placentae, umbilical cord, and the extracts of ovaries, Fallopian tubes, myometria and cervixes that were dissected from the total abdominal hysterectomy specimens of women in proliferative secretory phase of menstrual cycle.
		In the radioimmunoassay methods of the present invention the antibody containing bound unlabeled PEP and radioisotope-labeled PEP is separated from the mixture by precipitation of the antibody-bound PEP and removal of the precipitate from the mixture.

	Mothering: The induction and augmentation of labor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The practitioner, using an amnihook, pierces a hole in the chorioamniotic membrane to permit leakage of aminotic fluid.
		This method enables the practitioner to examine amniotic fluid for blood or meconium; to set in place an intrauterine pressure catheter to measure uterine contractions, or insert a direct fetal monitor cathode to obtain fetal scalp blood samples; and to attempt to shorten the length of first-stage labor.
		Whereas this surgical procedure is reportedly successful in accomplishing most of its goals, the benefits of a shortened labor are questionable."5]
