Popis: | Eleven cases of “Bombay” phenotype in six different Indian families are reported. Two of the families show evidence for the suppression of the ABO antigens. In one family B antigen was involved in two sibs with “Bombay” phenotype and in the other suppression was evident but the true ABO groups could not be ascertained. Most cases are identified due to crossmatching difficulty but a few cases are reported in this article which were detected through the cells. The common occurence of these cases from Bombay is pointed out and the importance of using anti-H as one of the reagents in doing ABO grouping in India is stressed. |
