ABSTRACT:
A method is disclosed for determining whether or not preterm or end-term labor is imminent which is based upon the relative elevation of the level of eosinophil major basic protein (MBP). The level of MBP in a sample of a physiological fluid of a pregnant woman is measured and the level is compared to a predetermined level indicative of the plateau gestational level of the protein.
