Loop-mediated isothermal amplification for detection of HLA-B*58:01 alleleJ Kwok
Division of Transplantation and Immunogenetics, Department of Pathology and Clinical Biochemistry, Queen Mary Hospital, Hong Kong SAR, China
Tissue Antigens 81:83-92. 2013..The HLA-B*58:01 LAMP assay has compatible sensitivity and specificity to routine genotyping assays, and it is potentially an alternative screening test for the detection of HLA-B*58:01 and ultimately allopurinol-induced hypersensitivity...
Unnecessary repeat requesting of tests: an audit in a government hospital immunology laboratoryJ Kwok
Clinical Immunology Division, Department of Pathology, Queen Mary Hospital, Pokfulam Road, Hong Kong
J Clin Pathol 58:457-62. 2005..The waste of technician time and reagents as a result of unnecessary repeat testing is excessive. Many of these tests might be eliminated with the use of interventions such as computerised reminders...
