Risk of transfusion-associated dengue: screening of blood donors from Pune, western India.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Methods that detect a child's homozygosity by examination of allelic products are insensitive for diagnosing incest because, at a given locus, a homozygous state is expected with a frequency of only 0.25 when parents are first-degree relatives. Furthermore, these methods are not specific if the population co...
