Abstract

The distribution of transferrin C subtypes was studied in the population of Jordan. The sample comprised 121 Bedouins and 382 other Jordanians from Amman. The frequency of Tf^C2 was found to be 0.26 among the Bedouins and 0.23 among the non-Bedouin population. Tf^D was present in low frequency (0.005) among both the Bedouin and non-Bedouin populations.
