Standardization of bromelin for use in routine one-stage antibody screening.

abstract：:A large 81 member, four-generation black family with hereditary angioedema is reported with regards to its clinical course and the association with the histocompatibility system. No mortality was seen related directly to the disease. Assuming that this trait is autosomal dominant it appeared to have no linkage with th...
