Testing of DNA sequences permits Testing of DNA sequences permits detection of many more subtypes or "splits" detection of many more subtypes or "splits" of HLA antigens or alleles. of HLA antigens or alleles.
In serological typing, some antigens are In serological typing, some antigens are difficult to identify and may even mask the difficult to identify and may even mask the presence of others. DNA typing can presence of others. DNA typing can routinely define antigens at the allele level, routinely define antigens at the allele level, assuring no ambiguity in interpretations. assuring no ambiguity in interpretations.
DNA typing does not require live blood cells DNA typing does not require live blood cells from the patient, permitting more flexible from the patient, permitting more flexible sample requirements. Thus, LabCorp can sample requirements. Thus, LabCorp can perform DNA-based HLA typing on: perform DNA-based HLA typing on:
