The FISH (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) Trisomy 21 Down Syndrome Test is a specialized diagnostic tool employed to detect the presence of an extra chromosome 21, which is indicative of Down Syndrome. This advanced genetic test involves the application of fluorescent probes that bind to specific DNA sequences on chromosome 21. By utilizing fluorescence microscopy, technicians can visually determine if an individual has three copies of chromosome 21 instead of the typical two, hence confirming a diagnosis of Down Syndrome.

Performed at DNA Labs UAE, a leading facility in genetic testing, the FISH Trisomy 21 Test is known for its accuracy, speed, and reliability. The test cost is set at 1200 AED, making it an accessible option for those seeking early and precise diagnosis. DNA Labs UAE is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and staffed by experienced professionals, ensuring that the test results are of the highest quality. This test is particularly useful for expecting parents who wish to have early information about their baby’s health and for anyone seeking clarification of their genetic condition.

Test Details:

The FISH (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) test is a genetic test used to detect specific chromosomal abnormalities, such as trisomy 21 or Down syndrome. It involves using fluorescent probes that bind to specific regions of chromosomes, allowing the identification of extra copies or missing portions of genetic material.

In the case of trisomy 21, the FISH test would analyze cells from a person’s blood or other tissue to determine if there are three copies of chromosome 21 instead of the usual two. Down syndrome is caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21, and the FISH test can provide a rapid and accurate diagnosis.

The FISH test is often used as a screening tool to detect chromosomal abnormalities in prenatal testing, as well as in postnatal testing for individuals suspected to have Down syndrome. It can be performed on a small sample of cells, such as amniotic fluid or chorionic villus sampling (CVS) cells, obtained during pregnancy, or on blood cells from an individual after birth.

It is important to note that while the FISH test can provide a quick diagnosis, it only detects trisomy 21 and does not provide information about other potential genetic disorders or abnormalities. Further testing, such as a chromosomal microarray analysis or a full karyotype, may be recommended to provide a more comprehensive evaluation of an individual’s genetic profile.
