titleWhich match types are used for the initial donor/cord search?

By default, Search & Match performs a 10/10 search for donors if all 5 loci (A,B,C,DRB1,DQB1) are available for the patient. If only 3 or 4 loci are available, the system will scale down to a 6/6 or 8/8 search, respectively. 10/10, 8/8 and 6/6 are all considered as zero mismatch searches and will not include mismatch donors in the results.

For CBUs, Search & Match performs a ≥8/10 search in all cases, irrespective of available patient typing.

By default, the Search & Match Service only provides 10/10, 8/8 or 6/6 matches initially. Selecting the 'Run Mismatch' search button allows you to request a mismatch search to review e.g. 9/10 or 7/8 match results. Once those results return, you will be able to review them by specific loci mismatches or any loci.

titleWhat is the difference between Allele and Haplotype frequencies?

Allele frequencies give the proportions of individual alleles. Haplotype frequencies give the proportions of specific haplotypes i.e. several alleles in phase and therefore preserve linkage information.
