Abstract excerpt
Recently, several studies demonstrated the feasibility of a real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) approach for chimerism monitoring. qPCR offers a fast, sensitive, and elegant quantification of genotypes. However, before it becomes an established method for routine chimerism monitoring, a qPCR marker set for every transplant pair should be available. This requirement poses a major challenge since the genetic markers...
