Introduction: Vitamin D concentrations during pregnancy are measured to diagnose states of insufficiency or deficiency. The aim of this study is to apply accurate assays of vitamin D forms (single hydroxylated (25(OH)D2, 25(OH)D3), double-hydroxylated (1α,25(OH)2D2, 1α,25(OH)2D3), epimers (3-epi-25(OH)D2, 3-epi-25(OH)D3)) in mothers (serum) and neonates (umbilical cord) i) to expl...
