Abstract
The frequency of deletional alpha-thalassemia in the Egyptian population was estimated at 0.08 by DNA analysis of a newborn random sample. No alpha 0 determinants were found. The most frequent alpha+ determinant was the -alpha 3.7 type I in association with the medium allele at inter-zeta HVR. The -alpha 4.2 and alpha alpha alpha anti 3.7 arrangements were found at very low frequencies.
