Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Twenty-nine human platelet antigen systems have been described to date, but the majority of current genotyping methods are restricted to the identification of those most commonly associated with alloantibody production in a clinical context. This can result in a protracted investigation if causative human platelet antigens are rare or novel. A targeted next-generation sequencing approach was designed...
