DNA Genetic Tests: HLA-B*5701 Detection
- Required only hours from blood sample to results
- Designed for easy operation & analysis
Many studies have demonstrated the strong association of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA-B*5701) and Abacavir induced hypersensitivity reactions (HSR). Individuals that use DNA tests to determine their HLA genotypes prior to taking these drugs can reduce their risks of developing HSR significantly. |
