Abstract excerpt
HLA-B27 is a risk marker for ankylosing spondylitis and other associated seronegative spondyloarthropathies. We compared three methods of HLA-B*27 typing in a New South Wales (NSW) population: flow cytometry, rs4349859 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection assay, and allele-specific real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis of exons 2 and 3. Over a 5-month period, 543 samples underwent flow...
