Abstract：
:Testing of 722 black hospital patients in Baltimore for the Duffy antigens found in whites demonstrated that 36.28 percent of the patients possessed these blood proteins. This group is the largest cluster of black individuals so examined in the United States. The results may provide a genetic benchmark for the Baltimore black population and offer a comparison with blacks in other areas.
