For the molecular determination of alleles of Human Platelet Alloantigen HPA-1 (PlA)
ThromboType®1 is an alternative to platelet serological testing and an adjunct to HLA matching in selecting compatible platelets for alloimmunized recipients. ThromboType®1 contains the reagents necessary to perform allele-specific PCR on isolated genomic DNA and to identify an individual’s genotype for HPA-1 using a gel endpoint. As an accessory to the ThromboType®1 kits, Gen-Probe offers its EZ Type® System, providing a fast and economical, easy and convenient way to analyze your allele-specific PCR products.
- Pre-aliquoted and dried primers in 0.2mL PCR tubes
- Replaces older serological assays for platelet HPA-1 antigen determination
- Combines PCR with the EZ Type® System to offer fast and easy typing of HPA-1 platelet antigen
- Can perform multiple typings in about two hours
