Abstract excerpt
HLA-Cw typing by standard serological techniques is associated with a high frequency of blanks, and reliable typing reagents for several of the Cw specificities are scarce. We evaluated the PCR-SSP technique for Cw typing in 370 kidney transplant patients and 280 healthy blood donors. Serological typing of all individuals was performed in our laboratory from 1995 to 1997 using commercially available tissue-typing...
