Abstract excerpt

Plasma haptoglobin phenotypes were determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, followed by benzidine staining for 58 HIV-1 seropositive Ghanaians and 79 randomly selected age-matched controls. Hp0 was present in only 14% of HIV-1 seropositive individuals compared with more than 40% of the c...
