ABH secretor status in saliva of Calabar Municipality residents.

East African medical journal - 1 Jan 1992

Emeribe A O, Igweagu C A, Osim E E

Abstract excerpt

One hundred and seventy six healthy residents of Calabar Municipality were investigated for the presence of salivary ABH substances. Saliva and blood samples collected were analysed by haemagglutination inhibition and standard tube ABO grouping methods respectively. 86.90% and 13.10% of the subjects were ABH secretors and non-secretors respectively. A significant correlation was established between the secretor...
