The distribution of ABO and Rh(D) and selected high- and low-frequency antigens in the people in the Kingdom of Tonga.

Transfusion - 1 Jan 2000

Roberts S K, Vengelen-Tyler V

Abstract excerpt

The incidence of red cell A, B, and D antigens in 7903 people from the Kingdom of Tonga is reported. ABO and D typings were performed by the slide method while establishing a registry of potential blood donors. The results of selected high-frequency antigens and one low-frequency antigen typing of 1009 donors also are reported.
