Duffy Blood Group Genotyping in Thai Blood Donors
BACKGROUND Duffy (FY) blood group genotyping is important in transfusion medicine because Duffy alloantibodies are associated with delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions and hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn. In this study, FY allele frequencies in Thai blood donors were determined by in-house PCR with sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP), and the probability of obtaining compatible bl...
متن کاملkidd blood group genotyping in alloimmunized thallasemia patients
Abstract Background and Objectives Hemagglutination has limitations in identifying the phenotype of patients who have been recently transfused due to the presence of donor red cells (RBCs) in the patient’s circulation. Kidd blood group is one of the most important blood groups in transfusion medicine and related antibodies are responsible for one third of delayed haemolytic transfusion reactio...
متن کاملABO genotyping in Italian blood donors.
BACKGROUND Traditional ABO blood group serology is based on the immunoreactivity of antisera with the carbohydrate A, B and H antigens. Progress in the molecular biology of the ABO system has recognized the molecular basis of the red cell (RBC) antigens and has provided a genetic model for ABO polymorphism at the molecular level. Recently, this genetic model was tested in a large number of indi...
متن کاملThe Duffy blood group system: a review.
Duffy was the first blood group mapped to an autosome (chromosome 1) using cytogenetic studies. Duffy antigens are located on a glycoprotein that can be found on erythrocytes and other cells throughout the body. Fy(a) and Fy(b) are products of their respective alleles (FY*A, FY*B). Fy(x) characterized by weak Fy(b) expression, is a result of an additional mutation in FY*B. The Fy(a-b-) phenotyp...
متن کاملHcv Infection among Thai Blood Donors
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is an important blood-borne infection in many countries, including Thailand. For epidemiological surveillance and controlling the infection, 2,167 blood donors were screened for antibody to HCV by an enzyme immunoassay method and interviewed by using a structured questionnaire which consisted of personal health history and some risk behaviors. The prevalence an...
