IRF6 Gene Orofacial Cleft Type 6 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the IRF6 Gene Orofacial Cleft Type 6 Genetic Test. This test is designed to detect variations or mutations in the IRF6 gene, which is associated with orofacial cleft type 6, a type of cleft lip and/or cleft palate. By analyzing the DNA of an individual using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we can provide valuable information for diagnosis, genetic counseling, and treatment options.
Test Components and Price
The IRF6 Gene Orofacial Cleft Type 6 Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test requires a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA Card as a sample condition. The report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test falls under the dysmorphology category and is conducted by our Genetics department in collaboration with pediatricians.
Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the IRF6 Gene Orofacial Cleft Type 6 NGS Genetic DNA Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the IRF6 Gene Orofacial Cleft Type 6 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene IRF6.
Test Details
The IRF6 gene is specifically associated with orofacial cleft type 6. NGS technology, also known as Next Generation Sequencing, is utilized to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of the IRF6 gene, this involves sequencing the DNA of an individual to identify any variations or mutations that may be linked to orofacial cleft type 6. The test can aid in diagnosing the condition, providing genetic counseling, and guiding treatment options.
To conduct the test, a sample of DNA needs to be collected. This can be done through a blood sample, cheek swab, or other methods. The collected DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology to analyze the IRF6 gene. The results are interpreted by our team of geneticists and genetic counselors to determine the presence of any variations or mutations.
It is important to note that a positive result on this genetic test does not guarantee the development of orofacial cleft type 6. Genetic tests provide information about the likelihood of developing a condition, but other factors such as environmental and lifestyle factors can also play a role. Therefore, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional or genetic counselor to fully understand the implications and limitations of the test.
Genetic testing for orofacial cleft type 6 can be particularly beneficial for individuals and families with a history of the condition. The test results can provide valuable information for family planning and the management of the condition.
If you are interested in the IRF6 Gene Orofacial Cleft Type 6 Genetic Test or have any further questions, please consult with our healthcare professionals or genetic counselors at DNA Labs UAE.

Test Details |
The IRF6 gene is associated with orofacial cleft type 6, which is a type of cleft lip and/or cleft palate. NGS stands for Next Generation Sequencing, which is a high-throughput DNA sequencing technology that can analyze multiple genes simultaneously. An NGS genetic test for the IRF6 gene would involve sequencing the DNA of an individual to identify any variations or mutations in the gene that may be associated with orofacial cleft type 6. This test can help in diagnosing the condition, providing genetic counseling, and guiding treatment options. The test typically involves collecting a sample of DNA, which can be done through a blood sample, cheek swab, or other methods. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology to analyze the IRF6 gene. The results are then interpreted by geneticists or genetic counselors to determine if any variations or mutations are present. It is important to note that a positive result on this genetic test does not necessarily mean that an individual will develop orofacial cleft type 6. Genetic tests can provide information about the likelihood of developing a condition, but other factors, such as environmental and lifestyle factors, can also play a role in the development of the condition. Genetic testing for orofacial cleft type 6 can be beneficial for individuals and families who have a history of the condition, as it can provide valuable information for family planning and management of the condition. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional or genetic counselor to understand the implications and limitations of the test. |
