Genetic examinations list

Filter by name:

AR deafness – detection of 35delG GJB2 mutation

Testing for 35delG mutation in the GJB2 gene responsible for AR hereditary, non-syndromic disorder/hearing loss (deafness).

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

3 weeks

STATIM

3 days

Response to hormonal stimulation – Ser680Asn polymorphism in the FSHR FSHR gene

Testing for p.Ser680Asn polymorphism in the FSH receptor gene (FSHR) by real-time PCR. This is aimed at investigating the Ser680Asn to Ser680Ser change that is associated with low sensitivity of FSHr to gonadotropins.

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

3 weeks

STATIM

3 days

Cascade prenatal testing (by QF-PCR, array) excluding maternal contamination

Cascade aneuploidy testing of material after invasive prenatal examination using QF-PCR and array methods, excluding maternal contamination. This can be supplemented by foetal karyotyping, if necessary.

Material:

Chorionic villi, Amniotic fluid …
Chorionic villi, Amniotic fluid, Cord blood, Isolated DNA from chorionic villi, Isolated DNA from amniotic fluid, Isolated DNA from cordocentesis, DNA isolated from cultured cells

Turnover Time:

3 weeks

Detection of aberrations by FISH

Genetic testing to specify structural chromosomal aberrations or to accurately quantify mosaicism in a sample.

Material:

Chorionic villi, Amniotic fluid …
Chorionic villi, Amniotic fluid, Cord blood, Cultured cells

Turnover Time:

4 weeks

STATIM

1 week

Foetal karyotyping from CVS

Foetal karyotyping from chorionic villi to determine chromosomal aberrations of the foetus.

Material:
