Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“As a dermatologist, I recognise the emotional toll that a newborn’s persistent, scaling skin can impose on a family. This genetic analysis pinpoints the exact molecular defect, enabling us to offer targeted management and accurate genetic counselling. Remember, clinical correlation with a specialist is essential for every result.”

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) / الأسئلة الشائعة
1. What exactly does the PNPLA1 gene test detect, and how soon can I get results?
This test detects disease‑causing variants in the PNPLA1 gene that cause autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis with 99.9% accuracy. Results are typically delivered within 3 to 4 weeks after receipt of sample at our ISO‑certified laboratory. يكشف هذا الفحص الطفرات المسببة للسماك الخلقي الصبغي الجسدي المتنحي بدقة 99.9%، وتظهر النتائج عادةً خلال 3 إلى 4 أسابيع.
2. Is a doctor’s referral mandatory, and Do I need genetic counselling before the blood draw?
A physician’s referral (Dermatologist, Pediatrician, or Neonatologist) is strongly recommended, and a pre‑test genetic counselling session is compulsory to draw a family pedigree chart and ensure fully informed consent. This step safeguards validity and aligns with UAE CDS Law 2026 for genetic testing in minors. يلزم إحالة طبية واستشارة وراثية مسبقة لرسم شجرة العائلة وضمان الموافقة المستنيرة، خاصةً للقاصرين وفق قانون الإمارات.
3. How does the home collection service work, and is my data protected under UAE law?
Our VIP mobile phlebotomy team visits your home or office (8 AM‑11 PM daily) with validated cold‑chain transport for blood, extracted DNA, or a single‑drop FTA card.
