Abstract:
A practical method for haptoglobin subtyping is described utilizing fast sample preparation by means of batch adsorption to DEAE-cellulose and subsequent isoelectric focusing of reductively cleaved samples. The expanded haptoglobin polymorphism leads to an increase of the theoretical paternity exclusion rate to approximately 33%. Hence, the system appears to be highly attractive for paternity assessment.
