Abstract
We investigated HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-DRB1 gene frequencies in 1368 unrelated Austrian umbilical cord blood samples. HLA-C gene frequencies were investigated in a subgroup of 503 samples. HLA typing was performed via sequenced-based typing (SBT). The aim of this study was to examine the HLA diversity in a large Austrian population sample. In addition we present results of a subsample of 100 samples at a subtype level. This study is the first systematic investigation of donated umbilical cord blood samples in the Austrian population.
