Presenza di Emoglobina «L» nel Ferrarese e di Emoglobina «D» nel Bolognese

Abstract

SUMMARYThe Authors describe from the electro-phoretic, biochemical, spectrophotometric and chromatographic points of view the slow Hb as observed in 5 family groups from Ferrara and Bologna, in 4 of which they found an Hb L, while the 5th presented an Hb D. A new Hb is therefore added to the numerous abonrmal hemoglobines already found in Italy (Hb S, Hb G, Hb D, Hb K, Hb H, Hb J, abundant Hb A2): the Hb L, which is rather frequent in the region of Ferrara.As for the Hb D, its presence in different regions of Italy is stressed, in as far as the first family, previously described, came from Calabria, and the present one from Bologna.
