Abstract:
As part of the Fourth Asia-Oceania Histocompatibility (4AOH) Workshop, the authors have demonstrated a method of DNA-based tissue typing of the HLA-A locus using ARMS-designed primers in a panel of specific PCR reactions. The study was carried out blind under Workshop conditions and the results confirm the method as an accurate means of determining HLA-A locus tissue types.
