What is QTYPE HLA Typing?

For samples that need to be processed fast, QTYPE offers rapid and accurate real-time PCR-based HLA typing for 11 loci with a low-to-intermediate resolution.

Benefits
  • Fast: HLA typing in less than 1 hour and <10 mins of hands-on time
  • High robustness: Each allele covered by multiple reactions
  • Enhanced resolution: Sequence-specific detection and multiplexing
  • Seamless: Single-step setup and easy analysis

QTYPE HLA Typing Highlights

Single test for 11 loci
HLA-A, B, C, DRB1, DRB3,4,5, DQA1, DQB1, DPA1, DPB1

Low to intermediate resolution

  • Covers all alleles from the database used in design
  • Resolves key antigens relevant for transplantation (> 96%)
  • Direct to high resolution for DPB1 CWDs

No duplicate reactions
All alleles covered at least twice in different reactions (functional redundancy)

How does QTYPE HLA Typing Work?

QTYPE is a rapid HLA typing solution, designed to provide results within one hour. Kits include a DNA well plate pre-aliquoted with dried primers and probes that are designed to bind with select alleles.

A Complete Workflow that Offers Speed and Precision in Real Time

Simple and rapid workflow: HLA typing within an hour

QTYPE plates can be set up in batches and stored in the refrigerator for 8 hours before performing the real-time PCR run.
