title: Genetic polymorphisms of orosomucoid and alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein in Thai, Sri Lankan and Paraguayan populations.
abstract: The genetic polymorphism of orosomucoid (ORM) and alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein (AHSG) were studied in Thai, Sri Lankan and Paraguayan populations using isoelectric focusing. Gene frequencies in these populations were compared with those in other populations. Four new ORM variants were detected: ORM1*15 in Thai, ORM1*16 in Paraguayan, ORM2*21 and ORM2*22 in Sri Lankan.
