Test Overview & Methodology
The 3 kb Mate‑Pair Library Preparation Test is a high‑resolution genomic assay designed to detect large structural variants—deletions, duplications, inversions, and translocations—down to 3‑kilobase resolution, far exceeding the capability of standard short‑read whole‑genome sequencing. This test utilises long‑insert paired‑end libraries sequenced on the NovaSeq X platform, combined with Hi‑C proximity ligation to resolve complex rearrangements. Results are validated by orthogonal long‑read sequencing or Opti‑DT analysis to ensure clinical accuracy.
| Feature | Our 3kb Mate‑Pair Test | Closest Alternative (Standard WGS) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision / Sensitivity | ≥99.9% for SVs >3 kb; validated with orthogonal long‑read/Opti‑DT | Misses >60% of large SVs; limited to SNVs/indels |
| Methodology | Long‑insert NGS Mate‑Pair (3 kb) + Hi‑C on NovaSeq X; validated with orthogonal confirmation | Standard 350 bp insert WGS; no long‑range linkage |
| Turnaround Time | 12 days (expedited analysis available) | 21–30 days |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
As a Consultant Medical Geneticist, I, Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh (DHA Registration ID: 9294403), emphasise that this advanced genomic investigation can reveal significant structural variant findings. However, no single test should be used as a standalone diagnostic tool. Any detected variant must be correlated with your clinical picture, family history, and additional confirmatory studies. Please continue all prescribed treatments and consult your specialist before making any changes based on these results.
Advisory & Safety Exclusion Criteria
⚠️ Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.
- Exclusion Criteria: Pregnancy (unless clinically indicated), age under 18 without legal guardian consent, active severe infection, immunocompromised state, or inability to provide a high‑molecular‑weight DNA sample.
- Sample Rejection: Degraded DNA, insufficient quantity, or samples collected outside the 24‑hour cold‑chain window.
- Emergency Red Flags: If you experience sudden severe chest pain, difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness, uncontrolled bleeding, or acute neurological changes, go to the nearest emergency room immediately—do not wait for test results.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. Who needs this test and what does it detect?
This test is indicated for individuals with a suspicion of large genomic rearrangements—deletions, duplications, inversions, and translocations larger than 3 kb—that may underlie unexplained developmental delay, congenital anomalies, neuropsychiatric disorders, or cancer predisposition. It is also used for research applications in ageing and mosaicism.
2. How is the sample collected and what are the requirements?
Our VIP mobile phlebotomy team performs home or clinic collection of whole blood via standard venipuncture. Alternatively, high‑molecular‑weight DNA extracted in a certified laboratory may be accepted. All samples are transported using ISO‑certified temperature‑controlled cold‑chain logistics and must reach the lab within 24 hours of collection. Collection is available daily from 8 AM to 11 PM.
3. Will my insurance cover this and how do I get the results?
We verify insurance eligibility directly via WhatsApp (+971 54 548 8731) before the blood draw. The digital report includes a telephonic consultation with a DHA‑licensed Consultant Medical Geneticist for interpretation. Results are delivered electronically within 12 calendar days, with expedited options available upon request.
