Abstract excerpt
PCR using sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) is widely employed for the genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in both routine diagnosis and medical research. The human platelet alloantigens (HPAs) represent SNPs in platelet-specific glycoproteins, and HPA-1, -2, -3, and -5 are the most relevant in immunohematology. In most protocols, the respective HPA-SNPs are analyzed in allele-specific...
