Predictive testing – a partner carries the gene mutation from CarrierTest (including compatibility of the couple)

CarrierTest is a panel NGS test of selected regions using data from exome libraries.

When to use this test: The partner is already a known carrier of the gene mutation detected in our laboratory by CarrierTest. Therefore, the patient is indicated to be tested for all mutations of the gene, which will also be performed by CarrierTest and the compatibility of both partners determined.

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

6 weeks

STATIM

3 weeks

Predictive testing – a partner carries the gene mutation from CarrierTest but not tested in GNTlabs

CarrierTest is a panel NGS test of selected regions using data from exome libraries.

When to use this test: The partner is already a known carrier of a mutation in the gene that is included in the CarrierTest, so the patient is indicated to be tested for all mutations in the gene, which will also be performed by CarrierTest, but the partner has not been tested in our laboratory and compatibility will not be tested.

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

Addition of compatibility testing to the partner’s CarrierTest

When to use this test: We have already performed CarrierTest in the patient, the partner either underwent it too or is now indicated for this test, but they have not yet been tested for their mutual compatibility, which is now required.

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

Additional evaluation of selected gene from CarrierTest panel for matching

Additional testing for hidden carriage of key mutations in selected recessive genes that may affect the health status of carriers and their offspring. The matching uses the evaluation of data from the already performed CarrierTest NGS testing intended for donors. When to use this test: We use it to match the donor with the partner who carries the mutation in the selected gene to determine the suitability of using this donor and eliminate any reproductive risk.

Material:

Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

2 days

STATIM

1 day

PGT – aneuploidy (PGT-A)

Preimplantation genetic testing of aneuploidy in embryos by NGS method to assess their suitability for transfer and exclude non-viable embryos.

Material:

Trophectoderm, Amplified DNA from the trophectoderm

Turnover Time:

4 weeks

STATIM

2 weeks

PGT – structural chromosome defect (PGT-SR)

Preimplantační genetické testování strukturních chromozomových vad u embryí s cílem identifikovat nebalancovaná a aneuploidní embrya a vyloučit je z transferu. Dle typu a velikosti strukturní chromozomové vady se provádí buď metodou NGS, anebo SNP array.
