title: Incidence of abnormal haemoglobins and G-6-PD deficiency in school children of Udaipur (Rajasthan), India.
abstract: Blood samples from 1198 school children (both sexes) of eight endomagous castes of Udaipur (Rajasthan) were investigated for the evidence of abnormal haemoglobins and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) deficiency. Abnormal haemoglobins were encountered in 10 children (0.83%); seven Hb-S and three Hb-D. G-6PD deficiency was found in 55 children (4.59%).
