HLA Typing
HLA typing is a medical test used to assess whether organ and bone marrow donors are suitably and safely matched to a transplant recipient. It is a test that identifies antigens on the surface of cells and tissues. It is used to match a transplant recipient (person receiving a transplant) with a compatible donor (person who gives their cells for a transplant).
With thousands of patients needing HLA typing every month, our team at Nova diagnostic and research understand the desperate need for HLA typing in Somalia. Nova immunology has both the expertise and the facilities to safely conduct this test in a timely and accurate manner.
