FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: invention describes a method for prediction of reduced transport function of band-3 protein of red-cell membranes of newborns delivered by mothers suffered aggravated herpes viral infection in the third trimester of pregnancy wherein newborn's peripheral blood is examined for the TNFa content; band-3 protein is detected in the newborn's red-cell membranes by disk electrophoresis in polyacryl amide gel (10%) with sodium dodecyl sulphate; a discriminant function is calculated by formula Df=(5.167×band-3)+(2.196×TNFα), wherein Df is the discriminant function, band-3 is red-cell membrane stromal protein, TNFα is newborn's blood interleukine, and if Df is more than 218.67, reduced transport anion function by protein band-3 through newborn's red-cell membranes is predicted.
EFFECT: invention provides detecting the effect of herpes viral infection on the content of protein band-3 in newborn's red-cell membranes.
