Test Overview
This next‑generation sequencing test deciphers the NDUFAF4 gene entirely, revealing pathogenic variants that cause mitochondrial complex I deficiency, a severe neurometabolic and often paediatric‑onset disease. The assay enables precise molecular diagnosis, guides metabolic management, and informs family planning. يكشف الفحص الجيني المتقدم عن الطفرات المسببة لنقص المركب الأول، مما يدعم التشخيص المبكر واتخاذ قرارات الإنجاب الواعية.
| Feature | Our Test (NDUFAF4 NGS) | Closest Alternative (Whole Exome Sequencing) |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic Precision | 99.9% detection of coding, splice‑site variants and copy‑number changes | ~95% for the targeted gene; deep intronic mutations may be missed |
| Methodology | Next‑Generation Sequencing (NGS) with full‑gene coverage and CNV analysis | Exome capture + NGS; follow‑up Sanger validation required |
| Turnaround Time | 3 to 4 weeks | 4 to 6 weeks |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“As a neurologist, I stress that a positive NDUFAF4 result confirms the biochemical suspicion and allows accurate prognostication, yet all genetic findings must be correlated with clinical presentation and muscle biopsy or enzymatic studies. A negative result never rules out other mitochondrial diseases, so comprehensive metabolic work‑up remains essential. Emotional support and genetic counselling are the cornerstones of post‑test care.”
— Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY, DHA License No. 61713011, Consultant Neurologist

Frequently Asked Questions (Clinical Guidance)
1. What does the NDUFAF4 DNA test detect, and how does it help my child?
This test identifies disease‑causing mutations in the NDUFAF4 gene, enabling definitive diagnosis of mitochondrial complex I deficiency in as little as 3 weeks. يكشف هذا الفحص الطفرات الممرضة في الجين مما يتيح تشخيصًا قاطعًا خلال 3 أسابيع فقط. Early molecular confirmation allows clinicians to initiate targeted metabolic support, predict disease course, and offer accurate genetic counselling for future pregnancies.
2. Is home blood collection safe and legally approved for this genetic in the UAE?
Yes, our DHA‑licensed mobile phlebotomists provide hospital‑grade, cold‑chain home collection fully compliant with UAE PDPL and Federal Decree‑Law No. 41 of 2024. نعم، يوفر سحب الدم المنزلي المرخص من هيئة الصحة بدبي ويتوافق مع قانون حماية البيانات الشخصية والقانون الاتحادي رقم 41. The sample is handled in an ISO 9001:2015 (Cert: INT/EGQ/2509DA/3139) facility with end‑to‑end traceability.
3. Can I use insurance to cover the 2800 AED cost, and how long do results take?
Our team verifies direct billing eligibility with most UAE insurers within 1 hour via WhatsApp; results are available in 3–4 weeks with full clinical interpretation. نتائج الفحص جاهزة في 3–4 أسابيع مع تفسير سريري كامل. Pre‑authorization assistance eliminates unexpected charges and ensures a smooth claim process.
