Abstract excerpt
The human platelet antigens (HPA) are genetically defined polymorphisms expressed on platelet membrane glycoproteins. As platelet antigens are very important in several clinical situations and in population genetics, we used the polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) to investigate HPA-1, -2, -3 and -5 allele frequencies in the Croatian population. The HPA frequencies obtained in 219...
