Pre Test Information
Before undergoing the GALT Gene Galactosemia Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with Galactosemia.
Test Details
The GALT gene is responsible for producing an enzyme called galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase. Galactosemia is a genetic disorder that occurs due to mutations in the GALT gene, resulting in a deficiency or complete absence of this enzyme. To diagnose galactosemia, a next-generation sequencing (NGS) genetic test is performed.
NGS technology allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, making it an efficient and comprehensive method for genetic testing. This test specifically analyzes the DNA sequence of the GALT gene to identify any mutations or variations that may be causing the disorder.
By identifying the specific mutations in the GALT gene, NGS genetic testing can confirm a diagnosis of galactosemia and help determine the severity of the condition. This information is crucial for managing the disorder and providing appropriate treatment and dietary restrictions to affected individuals.
If you suspect Galactosemia or have a family history of the disorder, consider getting the GALT Gene Galactosemia Genetic Test at DNA Labs UAE. Our experienced team and advanced technology ensure accurate results and personalized care. Contact us today to schedule an appointment.
