Haptoglobin typing in Zimbabwe.
The value of haptoglobins as a method of typing negroid blood in Zimbabwe has been evaluated. three hundred sixty-nine blood samples from negroid people were examined using gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The method provides good differentiation of all phenotypes including the 2-1M variant. In addition data on haptoglobin types of animals, both domestic and wild, are presented.
