Selective depression of blood group antigens associated with hereditary ovalocytosis among melanesians.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:In Japan, eligibility for blood donation depends on blood specific gravity, which does not directly measure blood haemoglobin. Additionally, the criteria are not based on normal values. Therefore, we investigated the feasibility of predonation screening by using actual haemoglobin levels, and ...
