Additional Technical Information

Ordering Recommendation

Use to assess donor genotype and compare to recipient genotype prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. For additional donor(s) testing, refer to Chimerism, Additional Donor (3005468). Pretransplant genotyping is required to enable posttransplant chimerism and engraftment monitoring.

New York DOH Approval Status

This test is New York state approved.

Specimen Required

Patient Preparation
Collect

Lavender (EDTA), pink (K2EDTA), or yellow (ACD solution A or B) OR bone marrow in lavender (EDTA) OR buccal brushes from donor.

Specimen Preparation

Transport 2 mL whole blood (Min: 1 mL) OR 1 mL bone marrow (Min: 1 mL) OR 2 buccal brushes in a sterile, dry tube. (Min: 2 brushes)

Storage/Transport Temperature

Refrigerated. Also acceptable: Ambient.

Unacceptable Conditions
Remarks

Posttransplant results will be compared to pretransplant recipient and donor genotypes, therefore, donor and recipient samples must be obtained and genotyped before the transplant event occurs.

Stability

Room temperature: 1 week; Refrigerated: 1 month; Frozen: Unacceptable

Methodology

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)/Fragment Analysis

Performed

Sun-Sat

Reported

5-9 days
Expected TAT begins at receipt of corresponding Chimerism, Recipient, Pretransplant (3005449) specimen.

Reference Interval

Interpretive Data

Background Information: Chimerism, Donor
Indication: Monitoring for bone marrow transplant patients; interval between bone marrow transplantation and testing is necessary for proper interpretation of results.
Methodology: PCR followed by capillary electrophoresis. Specimens are analyzed using 15 autosomal markers (D8S1179, D21S11, D7S820, CSF1PO, D3S1358, THO1, D13S317, D16S539, D2S1338, D19S433, vWa, TPOX, D18S51, D5S818 and FGA) and one gender marker (amelogenin).
Limitations: Diagnostic errors can occur due to rare sequence variations.

Compliance Category
