title: C3 polymorphism in patients with chronic uremia.
abstract: The C3 polymorphism phenotypes were determined by high-voltage agarose gel electrophoresis in 83 patients with chronic uremia on maintenance hemodialysis. In 45 patients with chronic pyelonephritis, the frequency of C3F and C3FS was significantly lower than in 38 patients with chronic glomerulonephritis and in a large control group.
