Price: 4400.0 AED
Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks
Method: NGS Technology
Test type: Hematology
Doctor: Hematologist
Test Department: Genetics
Pre Test Information: Clinical History of Patient who is going for HBA1 Gene Thalassemia, alpha NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with HBA1 Gene Thalassemia, alpha NGS Genetic DNA Test gene HBA1
Test Details: The HBA1 gene is responsible for producing one of the two types of alpha globin chains that make up hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. Thalassemia is a group of inherited blood disorders characterized by abnormal production of hemoglobin. Thalassemia can result from mutations in the HBA1 gene, leading to reduced or absent production of alpha globin chains. This imbalance in globin chain production causes a disruption in the normal structure and function of hemoglobin, leading to various forms of thalassemia. Alpha NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a diagnostic tool used to identify mutations in the HBA1 gene associated with thalassemia. This test involves sequencing the DNA of the HBA1 gene to detect any genetic variations or mutations that may be causing the disease. By identifying specific mutations in the HBA1 gene, alpha NGS genetic testing can help diagnose thalassemia and determine the severity of the condition. This information is crucial for genetic counseling, prenatal screening, and management of thalassemia patients.
