HEPATITIS A VIRUS RNA DETECTION PCR Test
Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the HEPATITIS A VIRUS RNA DETECTION PCR test. This diagnostic test is used to detect the presence of Hepatitis A virus (HAV) RNA in a patient’s blood sample. Read on to learn more about the test and its components.
Test Details
The HEPATITIS A VIRUS RNA DETECTION PCR test is a highly sensitive and specific diagnostic test used to accurately detect Hepatitis A infection. It is often used in conjunction with clinical symptoms and other laboratory tests to confirm the presence of HAV infection.
Components
- Test Name: HEPATITIS A VIRUS RNA DETECTION PCR Test
- Price: 1170.0 AED
Sample Condition
4 mL (2 mL min.) plasma from 1 Lavender Top (EDTA) tube. Separate plasma aseptically within 2 hours of collection. Ship refrigerated or frozen. 12 hours fasting is recommended.
Report Delivery
Sample Daily by 11 am; Report 10 days
Method
PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction)
Test Type
Disorders of Liver
Doctor
Physician, Gastroenterologist
Test Department
Molecular Diagnostics
Pre Test Information
12 hours fasting is recommended.
Test Procedure
- Sample collection: A blood sample is collected from the patient, usually through a venipuncture.
- RNA extraction: The viral RNA is extracted from the blood sample using specialized techniques.
- Reverse transcription: The extracted RNA is converted into complementary DNA (cDNA) using reverse transcriptase enzyme.
- PCR amplification: The cDNA is then amplified using specific primers that target the HAV RNA sequence.
- Detection: The amplified DNA is then detected using various methods, such as gel electrophoresis or real-time PCR. This allows for the confirmation of the presence of HAV RNA in the sample.
With our HEPATITIS A VIRUS RNA DETECTION PCR test, we can provide accurate results in diagnosing Hepatitis A infection. If you suspect you may have Hepatitis A or require further information, please consult with our experienced physicians and gastroenterologists.

| Test Details | The HEPATITIS A VIRUS RNA DETECTION PCR test is a diagnostic test used to detect the presence of Hepatitis A virus (HAV) RNA in a patient’s blood sample. PCR stands for polymerase chain reaction, which is a technique used to amplify and detect specific DNA or RNA sequences. The test involves several steps: 1. Sample collection: A blood sample is collected from the patient, usually through a venipuncture. 2. RNA extraction: The viral RNA is extracted from the blood sample using specialized techniques. 3. Reverse transcription: The extracted RNA is converted into complementary DNA (cDNA) using reverse transcriptase enzyme. 4. PCR amplification: The cDNA is then amplified using specific primers that target the HAV RNA sequence. This amplification step allows for the detection of even small amounts of viral RNA. 5. Detection: The amplified DNA is then detected using various methods, such as gel electrophoresis or real-time PCR. This allows for the confirmation of the presence of HAV RNA in the sample. The HEPATITIS A VIRUS RNA DETECTION PCR test is highly sensitive and specific, providing accurate results in diagnosing Hepatitis A infection. It is often used in conjunction with clinical symptoms and other laboratory tests to confirm the presence of HAV infection. |
