Abstract:
Blood and serum samples from random individuals of Madras City, South India, were screened for ESD and HP polymorphisms using mixed starch agarose gel electrophoresis and polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis respectively. The allelic frequencies for HP*1 and HP*2 in Madras are 0.1240 and 0.8760 respectively, while ESD*1 and ESD*2 gene frequency estimates were 0.7680 and 0.2320 respectively. The results are compared with those available for other Indian and world populations.
