Nested polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers typing for HLA-A, -B, and -C alleles: detection of microchimerism in DR-matched individuals

It is widely accepted that donor leukocytes survive within the recipient periphery after blood transfusion or solid organ transplantation. The significance of this microchimerism remains unclear, partially because of the insecurity of assays used to detect the donor-derived material. The techniques...
