Amino acid nutrition of the fetal lamb. 1977

R M Smith, and I G Jarrett, and R A King, and G R Russell

With three exceptions amino acids were retained by the fetal lamb from the maternal circulation in proportions appropriate for the synthesis of whole blody protein. Only glutamate, aspartate and serine, amino acids involved in the synthesis of nucleic acids, seemed to be produced by the fetus itself.
