Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: An Australian Caucasian blood donor consistently presented a serology profile for the Duffy blood group as Fy(a+b+) with Fy(a) antigen expression weaker than other examples of Fy(a+b+) red cells. Molecular typing studies were performed to investigate the reason for the observed serology profile. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Blood group genotyping was performed using a commercial SNP microarray...
