Luminex Multiplex Bead Assay Monitoring HLA IgG Antibodies in Sensitized Pre- and Post-transplant Patients: Clonality of the Detection Antibody Impacts Specificity and Sensitivity
The number and the binding affinity, measured as the mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) of HLA-specific IgG antibodies, formed in the sera of end-stage organ disease patients and allograft recipients, referred to as sensitization, may restrict the availability of a donor organ and/or lead to graft fai...
