The “Beta Thalassemia – 12 Common Mutations Screening Single Test,” available at DNA Labs UAE, is a specialized genetic test designed to detect the 12 most common mutations associated with Beta Thalassemia, a blood disorder that reduces the production of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is the iron-containing protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to cells throughout the body. Individuals with Beta Thalassemia may experience a range of symptoms from mild anemia to severe health complications, depending on the mutation and its impact on hemoglobin production.

This test is particularly important for individuals with a family history of thalassemia or those belonging to ethnic groups with a high prevalence of the disease. Early detection through this screening can provide crucial information for disease management, treatment planning, and informed family planning decisions. The test involves a simple blood draw, and the sample is analyzed to identify any of the 12 common mutations linked to Beta Thalassemia.

Offered at a cost of 1800 AED, the test is a valuable tool for at-risk individuals seeking to understand their genetic health and make proactive decisions regarding their well-being and that of their future offspring. DNA Labs UAE, known for its state-of-the-art genetic testing services, ensures confidentiality, accuracy, and timely results for all its clients.

Beta Thalassemia -12 Common Mutations Screening Single Test

Test Name: Beta Thalassemia -12 Common Mutations screening Single Test

Components: EDTA Vacutainer (2ml)

Price: 1800.0 AED

Sample Condition: Peripheral blood

Report Delivery: 6-7 days

Method: End Point PCR

Test Type: Genetics

Doctor: General Physician

Test Department:

Pre Test Information: Beta Thalassemia -12 Common Mutations screening (Single) can be done with a Doctors prescription. Prescription is not applicable for surgery and pregnancy cases or people planning to travel abroad.

Test Details: Beta thalassemia is a genetic disorder characterized by reduced or absent production of beta-globin chains, resulting in a decrease in hemoglobin synthesis. There are several different mutations that can cause beta thalassemia, with some being more common than others. Here are 12 common mutations that can be screened for in beta thalassemia:

  1. IVS-I-1 (G > A): This mutation affects the splice site of the first intron of the beta-globin gene.
  2. IVS-I-6 (T > C): This mutation affects the splice site of the first intron of the beta-globin gene.
  3. IVS-I-110 (G > A): This mutation affects the splice site of the first intron of the beta-globin gene.
  4. Codon 5 (-CT): This mutation results in a deletion of two nucleotides at codon 5 of the beta-globin gene.
  5. Codon 8 (-AA): This mutation results in a deletion of two nucleotides at codon 8 of the beta-globin gene.
  6. Codon 15 (G > A): This mutation results in a substitution of guanine with adenine at codon 15 of the beta-globin gene.
  7. Codon 16 (-C): This mutation results in a deletion of one nucleotide at codon 16 of the beta-globin gene.
  8. Codon 17 (A > T): This mutation results in a substitution of adenine with thymine at codon 17 of the beta-globin gene.
  9. Codon 26 (G > A): This mutation results in a substitution of guanine with adenine at codon 26 of the beta-globin gene.
  10. Codon 27/28 (+C): This mutation results in an insertion of one nucleotide at codon 27/28 of the beta-globin gene.
  11. Codon 41/42 (-TCTT): This mutation results in a deletion of four nucleotides at codon 41/42 of the beta-globin gene.
  12. Codon 71/72 (+A): This mutation results in an insertion of one nucleotide at codon 71/72 of the beta-globin gene.

Screening for these common mutations can help in the diagnosis and management of beta thalassemia, as it allows for early detection and appropriate genetic counseling.
