Overview
The SLC2A5 gene test identifies pathogenic variants in the fructose transporter GLUT5, enabling precise diagnosis of fructose malabsorption and related metabolic intolerance. يُعد فحص جين SLC2A5 أداة تشخيصية متطورة للكشف عن عدم تحمل الفركتوز ويسهم في تخطيط النظام الغذائي العلاجي. This advanced NGS assay replaces outdated sugar tolerance tests with molecular certainty.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
"As a consultant with extensive experience in metabolic genetics, I understand that gastrointestinal symptoms can cause significant distress. This test provides definitive molecular evidence, yet results must be correlated with your full clinical history and dietary response. Never adjust your diet or medications based solely on genetic data without professional guidance."
– Dr. Prabhakar Reddy, DHA Lic. 61713011
Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Exclusion Criteria: Active hemolytic anemia, recent blood transfusion (within 4 weeks), or inability to provide valid informed consent (minor without guardian).
- ER Red Flags: If you experience severe hypoglycemia, persistent vomiting, jaundice, or altered consciousness after fructose ingestion, seek immediate emergency care. These symptoms may indicate hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI), a distinct, life-threatening condition requiring urgent management.
- Sample Collection Note: For individuals under 18, a genetic counseling session and legal guardian consent are mandatory per CDS Law 2026.
- Data Privacy: All genetic data is protected under UAE PDPL and Federal Decree-Law No. 41 of 2024 (Art. 87). Results are shared exclusively with the ordering physician and the patient.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What does the SLC2A5 gene test diagnose, and how accurate is it for fructose uptake deficiency?
This test identifies mutations in the GLUT5 transporter gene, providing a definitive molecular diagnosis of fructose malabsorption with 99.9% sensitivity when performed via NGS. يكشف هذا الفحص الطفرات الجينية المسؤولة عن نقص امتصاص الفركتوز ويُعد تشخيصًا نهائيًا بفضل تقنية التسلسل الجيني المتقدم.
2. Can I take this test from home, and how is the sample collected?
Yes, our DHA-licensed mobile phlebotomy team collects blood, extracted DNA, or a single drop on an FTA card at your home between 8 AM and 11 PM, with cold-chain ISO transport. تتوفر خدمة السحب المنزلي المعتمدة لراحتك، حيث يتم جمع العينة بواسطة فريق طبي مرخص وفق معايير النقل المبرد.
3. What is the turnaround time, and can I get post- clinical guidance?
Results are delivered within 3–4 weeks, and a complimentary telephonic consultation with a clinical expert is included to explain the implications for your diet and health. تصدر النتائج خلال 3 إلى 4 أسابيع وتشمل استشارة هاتفية مجانية مع أخصائي تغذية أو طبيب لتفسير النتائج ووضع الخطة العلاجية.
