    The effect of the gene polymorphism for the key enzyme's folacin metabolism pathway on plasmatic homocysteine (Hcy) levels in fertile woman was observed. The subjects were from Shaoxing City, Jiangsu province in 2012, the selection criteria for the women of childbearing age were between 20-45 years old, with an average age of 28.2 (95%CI:27.8-28.6) years old. Sample collection continued uninterrupted lasted seven days, a total of 535 samples were collected, venous blood with EDTA addition or sodium citrate to anticoagulant. After separation, the blood cells and blood plasma were cryopreserved. DNA was extracted using spin column method. All the samples were selected for the gene polymorphism testing of the key enzyme's on folate metabolism and monitoring of plasmatic Hcy level. Eight single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) sites of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene (MTHFR) , methionine synthase gene (MS) , synthetic methionine reductase gene (MSR) and cystathionine β synthase gene (CBS) were detected.
