Methods A total of 30 samples, the blood of patients and donors waiting kidney transplantation, were used in the study. HLA-B typing was performed by one-step monoclonal antibody typing, micro PCR-SSP typing and PCR-SSOP reverse hybridisation. Results All samples were successfully typed by three methods. The difference between serological and PCR-SSP typing was 13%. The difference between PCR-SSOP and PCR-SSP typing was 3%. Conclusion Serology is high discrepancy rate and low-resolution, but cheap, simple and rapid. PCR-SSP and PCR-SSOP typing are high specific and accuracy. SSP is suitable for several samples, and SSOP is for lots of samples simultaneously although it needed long time.Read More
