Abstract excerpt
Human platelet antigens (HPA) can be targets for antibody responses that cause life-threatening thrombocytopenia following platelet transfusions or pregnancy. As an aid to diagnosis and prevention, serologic and DNA-based methods have been developed to type HPA. Of the DNA-based strategies, those using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) are very sensitive, but often require processing of amplification products....
