Abstract excerpt

In this study we screened 3060 consecutive blood donors for an unbound iron-binding capacity level of <28 microM and then performed HFE mutation analysis in these subjects. Sixty-five of the 75 subjects with a low initial unbound iron-binding capacity (all had normal ferritin levels) came back and only 5 (8%) had a low fasting unbound iron-binding capacity. Mutational analysis revealed H63D heterozygosity in two...
