Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Human platelet-specific alloantigens (HPA) are polymorphic epitopes which vary among ethnic groups. BACKGROUND: In Tunisia, HPA frequencies were determined in North and centre; however, the pattern of HPA in South Tunisian population is not been studied yet. The aim of this work was to determine allelic frequencies of HPA-1, -3, and -5 systems in south Tunisian population, in order to estimate the...
