Detection of newly produced T and B lymphocytes by digital PCR in blood stored dry on nylon flocked swabs

Abstract Background A normal number of T-cell receptor excision circles (TRECs) and K-deleting recombination excision circles (KRECs) is considered a biomarker for adequate new T- and B-cell production. In newborns, detection of TRECs and KRECs by real time PCR from dried blood spotted on filter pap...
