Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
The test is developed and its performance characteristics determined by Labcorp, but it has not been cleared or approved by the FDA. Rare or unusual allele combinations may not be ruled out. Alleles that encode identical protein sequences in the antigen recognition site may not be individually resolved even if they are common and well-documented alleles. Hence, there may be multiple alternative genotype results provided.
