A new chemical approach to synthesizing human ABO histo-blood type 2 antigenic determinants was developed. N-Phthaloyl-protected lactosaminyl thioglycoside derived from lactulose via the Heyns rearrangement was employed to obtain a type 2 core disaccharide. Use of this scheme lowered the overall number of reaction steps. Stereoselective construction of the α-galactosaminide/galactoside found in...

AIM To study correlation between lip print pattern, finger print pattern and ABO blood group. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study group consisted of 27 males and 27 females who were aged between 20-40 years. Lip prints, finger prints and ABO and Rh blood groups of each individual were recorded. Lip prints were classified, based on Suzuki's and Tsuchihashi's classification and finger prints were c...

the abo and rh blood groups of 9753 pregnant women were determined in the amin maternity hospital, isfahan, iran, from march 23, 1976 to july 11, 1977. their abo blood group frequencies were calculated as follows: 0=38.20%, a=30.67%, b=23.84% and ab=7.26%. also, 90.02% of the women were rh positive and the rest, namely, 9.98% were rh negative.

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none x-none background: this study was conducted to document the frequency abo & rhesus blood groups in potential male blood donor belong to south area of karnataka. methods: the data of blood donors from july 2009 to december 2009. results: total number of donors studied was 3048. the commonest blood group was o present in 37.87% followed by b in 29.98%, a in...

Background and Aims: The ABO blood group system is recognized as major and clinically significant blood group. This group is not only important in terms of blood transfusion and organ transplantation, but also has been utilized in genetic, fertility and infertility researches. The objective of the present study was to evaluate a possible relationship between ABO blood group system and ASA with ...

Objective Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease, affects women’s quality of life. Several studies revealed that both environmental and genetic factors contribute to the development of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of ABO and Rh blood groups in Iranian women with endometriosis referring to two referral infertility centers in Tehran, Iran. Mate...

There is strong evidence to suggest that there is an association between ABO blood group and certain diseases. This study in Baghdad, Iraq investigated the possible association of diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolaemia and hypertension with ABO type. The data were derived from 920 patients with diabetes mellitus, hypertension and hypercholesterolaemia attending hospitals, clinics and laborato...

ABO histo-blood group antigens have been postulated to modify pathogen spread through the action of natural antibodies and complement. The antigens are generated by a polymorphic glycosyl-transferase encoded by 2 dominant active and a recessive inactive allele. In this study we investigated whether ABO sugars are incorporated into the envelope of HIV-1 virions. HIV vectors derived from cells ex...

BACKGROUND Human beings have few characteristics that are unique from others. Lip prints are one of such feature. They are not changed throughout the life and are not influenced by injuries, diseases, or environmental changes. According to the various antigen-antibody reactions in the bloodstream, different individuals have specific blood groups. AIM To study the distribution of lip print pat...
