Autoradiogram showing the specific 417-bp PCR product from aortic segments and from the spleen of a mutant rabbit that received an infusion of 40 ml of whole blood from an NAT-R donor via the ear vein 70 hr previously. One μg of DNA was used for PCR. Lanes 1 and 2: abdominal aorta; lanes 3–7: thoracic aorta; lane 8: aortic arch (which was free of lesions); lanes 9 and 10: two different preparations of DNA from spleen; lanes 11 and 12: positive controls (0.1 μg of DNA isolated from the donor’s blood).
