TL;DR: There is a significant elevation of ECP in newborn infants as compared with normal adults, which probably reflects increased erythropoiesis in utero and rapidly disappears by the fourth and fifth day of life.
Abstract: Summary 1. Erythrocyte coproporphyrin and protoporphyrin levels have been determined in normal newborn infants and older children. 2. There is a significant elevation of EP in children as compared with normal adults. This increase probably reflects the general iron deficient state in children. 3. There is a significant elevation of ECP in newborn infants as compared with normal adults. This increase probably reflects increased erythropoiesis in utero and rapidly disappears by the fourth and fifth day of life. 4. The EP and ECP should be regarded as abnormal if they exceed twice the standard deviation above the mean.

TL;DR: In this paper, a pair of natural chlorophyll-related protoporphyrins, namely polyporphyrin IX (Por) and polymorphic polymorphin IX chloride (MnPor), were used as precursors to prepare polyprotoporphyrin (PolyPor and PolyMnNPor).
