Test Overview
The Prader‑Willi Syndrome FISH test targets the SNRPN locus on chromosome 15q11‑q13 to detect microdeletions responsible for this complex genetic disorder. It provides a definitive answer in 4 working days using a single 5 mL sodium heparin blood sample, eliminating the need for invasive tissue biopsies.

Clinical Insight & Patient Safety
Dr. Prabhakar Reddy (DHA 61713011), Consultant Paediatrician, notes:
“While the SNRPN FISH test reliably identifies the 15q11–q13 deletion, the result must be integrated with thorough clinical evaluation and genetic counselling. Families should avoid immediate dietary or therapeutic changes based solely on this molecular finding. Our team is committed to guiding you through every step, ensuring you understand the implications and next actions.”
⚠️ Medication Warning: Do not discontinue any prescribed medication or growth hormone therapy without consulting your doctor.
- Exclusion Criteria: Sample frozen or exposed to extreme heat, clotted blood, use of wrong anticoagulant tube, incomplete Chromosome & FISH Requisition Form (Form 17), recent blood transfusion (< 2 weeks), unconfirmed clinical suspicion.
- Red Flags – seek immediate medical attention: Severe neonatal hypotonia, poor feeding, respiratory distress, or prolonged apnoea while awaiting results.

Home collection available daily, 8 AM – 11 PM, with cold‑chain transport. Report: 4 working days. Price: 1500 AED.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What exactly does the Prader‑Willi FISH test detect?
It detects deletions of the SNRPN gene in chromosome 15q11‑q13, confirming Prader‑Willi syndrome with 99.9% sensitivity. The test directly visualises the target region using fluorescent probes, providing a clear yes/no result. A negative test generally rules out the common deletion, but further methylation analysis may be advised for atypical cases.

2. How is the blood sample collected for this test?
A DHA‑licensed phlebotomist draws 5 mL of blood into a sodium heparin green‑top tube at your home. The sample must remain at room temperature (18–22 °C) and never be frozen. Our cold‑chain logistics maintain specimen integrity from doorstep to our ISO‑accredited laboratory.
