Abstract
The distribution of serum haptoglobin, transferrin, and ceruloplasmin has been studied by starch gel electrophoresis for a Navajo Indian population in Arizona. Only the three common haptoglobin phenotypes were observed, but a high percentage of a new faster-moving transferrin variant B0-1 was discovered. No unusual ceruloplasmins were found.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
