Abstract excerpt
We report the haematological and molecular characterization of a previously undescribed condition of compound heterozygosity for haemoglobin (Hb) Hekinan [alpha27(B8) Glu-Asp] and a deletional alpha-thalassaemia 2 detected in a Thai individual. Hb analysis demonstrated that although this Hb variant co-migrates with Hb A on cellulose acetate electrophoresis and cation-exchange high-performance liquid...
