Abstract. 16 weak B60 erythrocyte samples belonging to six families were studied using three series of quantitative measurements. The results show that the so‐called B60, group is heterogeneous and does not correspond to a genetic entity.
A simple, sensitive and highly reproducible method is described using a particle counting procedure for the study of agglutination percentage of red cells as a function of time. The method may advantageously be used for the current study of zygosity and other antigenic variations especially in family investigation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
