The efficacy of the three common intra- and extragenic polymorphic sites of the factor VIII and IX genes has been examined in the Indian population, with an aim to develop a strategy that would be accurate and informative, yet economical. The approach for hemophilia A carrier detection includes tests for BclI, XbaI, and TaqI polymorphic sites for introns 18 and 22 and the extragenic locus St 14, respectively,...
