Blood Groups of Chinese in New York City: Application to Problems of Disputed Parentage

CODEN: JFSCAS

Abstract

In a previous article [1], the A-B-O blood groups and subgroups, M-N types, Kell types, and Rh-Hr types were presented for 400 Chinese living in New York City. After this report appeared an additional 546 Chinese persons were typed, and the purpose of the present article is to report the combined results for the entire series of 946 individuals, with special reference to certain aspects of the blood group findings which appear to be peculiar to Chinese and constitute a source of error in medicolegal tests for disputed parentage.
