A total of 218 β-thalassemia (thal) genes from 109 β-thal major patients were characterized using an automated fluorescence DNA sequencing technique. Eight different mutations were identified in all 218 alleles (100%). Four common mutations accounted for 96.8% [49.5% were codons 41/42 (-TTCT), 34.4%...
