Summary

With the help of a simplifed and quick method, cellulose acetate electrophoresis, the phenotypes of esterase D were determined in an Assamese population. The gene frequencies of Es D1 were 0.7263 and 0.2737 for Es D2.

Zusammenfassung

In einer Stichprobe aus Assam wurde mit Hilfe einer einfachen und schnellen Methode, der Cellulose-Acetat-Elektrophorese, die Bestimmung der Esterase D-Phänotypen durchgeführt. Die Genfrequenzen wurden für Es D1 zu 0,.7263 und für Es D2 zu 0.2737 bestimmt.
