Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: A number of DNA-based methods to genotype the alleles coding for HNA have been described, but all require the separate amplification and analysis of each allele. The aim was to develop a DNA-based method for simultaneous detection of HNA-1, HNA-3, HNA-4 and HNA-5 alleles. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An allele-specific primer extension method was used in combination with magnetic beads from...
