UDP-glucuronyltransferase activities towards 2-aminophenol and bilirubin were studied in a total of 70 human subjects, including premature and full-term newborn babies, infants, children and adults. These two activities have been reported in rat to develop latefoetally and neonatally respectively, but in man they both develop neonatally. There is a linear relationship between the logarithm of each liver transferase activity and the logarithm of the number of days after birth during the first 3 months of life, after which each activity remains constant.
