Abstract

The antigen McCa is detected in 98.5% and 96.7% of the American Caucasian and Negro populations, respectively. In population studies with anti-McCa and anti-Kna, a strong association was demonstrated between the 2 antigens, with 53% of McC(a-) samples being Kn(a-) compared with a reported frequency for Kn(a-) of only 0.19%.
