The Prothrombin Gene Mutation Analysis Test is a specialized genetic test conducted to detect mutations in the prothrombin gene, which is a key factor in the blood clotting process. Mutations in this gene, particularly the G20210A mutation, are associated with an increased risk of developing blood clots, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and other thrombotic conditions. Identifying the presence of this mutation can help healthcare providers assess a patient's risk for these conditions and guide decisions regarding preventive measures or treatments.
This test involves a simple blood draw, where the DNA is extracted from the blood cells and analyzed for the specific mutation. It is particularly recommended for individuals with a personal or family history of thrombosis or unexplained blood clotting events.
In the UAE, this test is available at DNA Labs UAE, a reputable facility known for its advanced genetic testing services. The cost of the Prothrombin Gene Mutation Analysis Test at DNA Labs UAE is 770 AED. Given the implications of the results for an individual's health management, this test is a valuable tool for those with a predisposition to thrombotic events, allowing for timely and informed healthcare decisions.
The Smooth Muscle Antibody (SMA) ASMA IFA in Dilutions Test is a diagnostic procedure aimed at detecting the presence of antibodies against smooth muscle tissue in the blood. This test is particularly useful in the diagnosis and monitoring of autoimmune conditions, such as autoimmune hepatitis, where the body's immune system mistakenly targets its own smooth muscle tissues. The test employs the Indirect Fluorescent Antibody (IFA) technique, which involves diluting the patient's serum and applying it to slides that have smooth muscle tissue. If antibodies are present, they will bind to the tissue, and a fluorescent dye is then used to visualize the antibodies under a microscope.
Performed at DNA Labs UAE, a leading facility known for its comprehensive range of diagnostic tests and cutting-edge technology, the Smooth Muscle Antibody ASMA IFA in Dilutions Test ensures accuracy and reliability in results. The cost of the test is 770 AED, making it accessible to individuals seeking detailed and precise diagnostic services for conditions related to autoimmune disorders affecting smooth muscles. This test is an important tool for healthcare professionals in making informed decisions about treatment and management strategies for their patients.
The Maternal Serum Screen 4 Quadruple Test, commonly referred to as the Quad Screen, is a prenatal test offered at DNA Labs UAE, designed to evaluate the likelihood of certain genetic conditions in a developing fetus. Priced at 770 AED, this non-invasive blood test is conducted during the second trimester of pregnancy, typically between the 15th and 20th weeks. It measures four specific substances in the mother's blood: alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), estriol, and inhibin A.
The Quad Screen is primarily used to assess the risk of the fetus having Down syndrome (trisomy 21), trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome), and neural tube defects such as spina bifida. It is important to note that this test does not diagnose these conditions but rather indicates a higher or lower risk, potentially leading to further diagnostic testing. DNA Labs UAE provides this service with professionalism and care, ensuring expectant mothers receive comprehensive support and information regarding their pregnancy health.
The "Anti-ds DNA Antibody Crithidia Indirect Fluorescent Antibody (IFA) in Dilutions Test" is a diagnostic laboratory examination performed to detect the presence of autoantibodies against double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the blood. This test is particularly significant in the diagnosis and monitoring of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue. The Crithidia luciliae organism, used in this assay, provides a highly specific substrate due to its kinetoplast containing a large amount of double-stranded DNA. When a patient's serum containing anti-dsDNA antibodies is applied to the Crithidia substrate, it binds to the kinetoplast. This binding is then visualized using a fluorescent-tagged anti-human antibody, providing a clear indication of the presence of these autoantibodies.
The test cost at DNA Labs UAE is 770 AED. DNA Labs UAE is a reputable laboratory that offers a wide range of diagnostic tests, including the Anti-ds DNA Antibody Crithidia IFA in Dilutions Test.
