LIFECODES HLA Typing Trays contain specific human antisera plus positive and negative controls. The differing styles of trays available provide various abbreviated or extensive choices for testing;
- The 72 Trays: contain sera to test for A,B loci; A,B,C loci; or ethnically associated loci as seen in the black (72BL) trays.
- The 72C Tray: contains sera to test for Cw1-Cw4
- The ABC2 Tray: provides sera to test for Cw1-Cw8.
- Class II (DR) HLA Typing Trays
