| English abstract | Hemoglobin B2, variant of delta globin chain, presents an increased frequency in African and afro-descendant populations but is considered rare in Caucasians. It does not present physiopathology effects in heterozygosis and it has been spread around the world by the founder effect. In this paper we report on the identification of Hb B2 in heterozygosis, by the association of electrophoretic and chromatography procedures, in two Caucasian women from Acre and Pará States, Brazil, which are endemic areas for Malaria |
