Abstract
A method is presented which allows sex-identification simultaneously of both male and female cells in cell mixtures. The sensitivity of this PCR-based assay is one male cell in 10 6 female cells. The test can be used routinely to analyze bone marrow and peripheral blood lymphocytes post-allogeneic sex-mismatched bone marrow transplantation to detect early engraftment or rejection, as well as host cell regeneration.
