Haptoglobulin phenotyping was carried out in fifty controls and in thirty five leprosy patients. In controls the incidence Hp phenotypes 2-2, 2-1 and 2-1 (Mod) is 76%, 16% and 8% respectively. In leprosy patients, the incidence of phenotypes 2-2, 2-1, 1-1 and 0-0 is 77%, 11%, 3% and 9% respectively. The incidence of phenotype 2-2, 1-1 and 0-0 is more in leprosy patients than in controls and is significant (p less than 0.05). In none of the leprosy patients phenotype 2-1 (Mod) was recorded.
