Investigation of the distribution of Rh blood group in voluntary blood donors in Foshan,Guangdong province,China / 中国免疫学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate and analysis the distribution situations of Rh blood group system from voluntary blood donors in Foshan area.Methods:Anti-D,anti-C,anti-c,anti-E and anti-e reagents were used to identify Rh blood group system and the RhD(-) was confirmed.The phenotypes,haplotypes and corresponding genotypes frequencies were calculated and the datas were analyzed based on Hardy-Weinberg law.Results:The characteristics of phenotype frequencies in the voluntary blood donors in Foshan area was CCDee＞CcDEe＞CcDee＞ccDEE＞ccDEe＞CCDEe＞CcDEE＞ccdee＞ccDee,Ccdee＞CCdee,ccdEe＞CCDEE,CCdEE,CCdEe,CcdEE,CcdEe and ccdEE.The characteristics of haplotypes frequencies was CDe＞cDE＞cDe＞CDE,de＞Cde＞cdE＞CdE.The characteristics of genes frequencies was D＞d,C＞c,e＞E.The frequency of RhD(-)phenotype was 0.379%.The gene frequency of d was 0.061.The observed value and desired value of the haplotypes and corresponding genotypes were not statistically significant(P>0.05).The data were analyzed well based on Hardy-Weinberg law.Conclusion:The result is reliable according to Hardy-Weinberg law.The distribution of Rh blood group system from voluntary blood donors in Foshan area has geographic and general characteristics.The result is important in guiding the recruitment of voluntary blood donors and banking blood reasonably and enhancing the abilitiy of offering blood for the recipients of rare blood group.
