The purpose of the present study was to make the first survey of the distribution of feline AB blood types in the Copenhagen area of Denmark. A total of 244 cats (139 purebred cats and 105 Domestic Shorthair cats) were tested. 93% of all tested cats had blood type A. Neither an AB nor an O type cat was detected and thus, the frequency of blood type B among all tested cats was 7%. Most type B cats were purebred cats (Birman, British Shorthair and Persian cats). No association between sex and blood type could be demonstrated among British Shorthair and Persian cats. Thus, the present study indicates that cats in Denmark predominantly have blood type A, and that blood type B cats are rare, except for certain breeds such as Birman and British Shorthair cats.
本研究的目的是首次调查丹麦哥本哈根地区猫AB血型的分布情况。总共检测了244只猫(139只纯种猫和105只家养短毛猫)。所有检测的猫中93%为A型血。未检测到AB型或O型猫,因此,所有检测猫中B型血的频率为7%。大多数B型血的猫是纯种猫(缅甸猫、英国短毛猫和波斯猫)。在英国短毛猫和波斯猫中,未发现性别与血型之间存在关联。因此,本研究表明丹麦的猫主要为A型血,除了某些品种如缅甸猫和英国短毛猫外,B型血的猫很罕见。
