Thalassemia minor beta is a relatively common blood disorder characterized by reduced production of beta-globin chains, a component of hemoglobin.
Thalassemia is a group of inherited blood disorders that affect the production of hemoglobin, the protein responsible for carrying oxygen in red blood cells. Thalassemia minor beta, also known as beta-thalassemia minor or beta-thalassemia trait, is a milder form of thalassemia characterized by a partial deficiency of beta-globin chains.
