In the period January 16 – February 10, 2012, there were 1000 new blood samples from potential hematopoietic stem cell donors tissue typed using the molecular HLA method for loci A, B and DRB1.
Out of total number of 33, 924 people listed in the Registry, until today 27,775 donors have been HLA tissue typed. This leaves 6,149 blood samples to be tissue typed.
We would like to thank everyone who were calling our charity number during the „Želim život“ action and by doing so, made it possible to get closer reaching our goal, which is to tissue type all of the collected blood samples so that the Croatian Registry is operational and available to be searched for non-related bone marrow and stem cell donors.
