Abstract excerpt
HLA typing of large donor registries and biobanks as well as acute single patient/donor samples remains expensive, slow and logistically challenging, despite recent developments in the field. We have tested and validated a cost-effective, accurate and highly scalable method for typing specific genes in the HLA region. This enables HLA typing from 1 to 96 individuals simultaneously, using a targeted PCR and Native...
