Chimerism after BMT has been documented by various genetic markers, RBC antigens, and, less frequently, by immunoglobulin allotypes. These markers are less sensitive than short tandem repeats (STRs), which provides a powerful tool for analysis of human polymorphisms. Application of STR analysis in patients undergoing allogeneic BMT has been used to detect mixed or complete chimerism, recurrent leukemia, and endogenous repopulation of marrow in early and late phases after transplant. It can detect minor populations of DNA in the period after transplant with adequate sensitivity, whereas traditional immunohematologic evaluation is limited because of the necessity of transfusing RBCs. 1
