Distribution of haptoglobin phenotypes in a Korean population, using the semi-automated PhastSystem.

Abstract excerpt

We have established a new phenotyping method for haptoglobin, based on sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis using the PhastSystem (Pharmacia Biotech, Uppsala, Sweden), followed by immunoblotting for detection. We measured haptoglobin concentrations and determined the haptoglobin phenotypes of 316 healthy Koreans using this method: 31 (9.8%) were of Hp 1-1 type, 140 (44.3%) of Hp 2-1 type and...
