KIR (Killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor) haplotype evaluation

The KIR haplotype (A/B) determination method allows for the identification of the mother's genetic makeup in the region of KIR receptors. These receptors play a crucial role in the communication between the mother's immune system and the embryo during pregnancy, where they recognize HLA-C molecules on the embryo's surface. Analysis of the KIR haplotype can help reveal specific maternal genotypes that, in combination with the fetal HLA-C, may be associated with a higher risk of pregnancy complications.

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

3 weeks

STATIM
