[Experience in using the LABType SSO reagent kits in the practice of a HLA typing laboratory]

HLA was typed from HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-DRB1 loci (to the second place) in 443 patients, by applying the LABType SSO reagent kits (One Lambda, USA). The findings were analyzed using the software Arlequin version 3.1. There were no deviations from the Hardy-Weinberg law. Overall, the authors identified 16, 27, and 13 allelic variants ofHLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-DRB1 loci, respectively. There were also 4 most common haplotypes of HLA-A-B-DRBII: HLA-A *03-B*35-DRB1 *01 (4.29%), HLA-A *01-B*08-DRBl *03 (3.5%), HLA-A*03-B*07-DRBI *15 (3.37%), and HLA-A *02-B*07-DRBI *15 (2.93%).
