Test Overview & Methodology
The 2x150 HiSeq Single Lane sequencing service delivers comprehensive paired-end analysis using Illumina HiSeq technology. This single-lane service generates 300 to 400 million reads at 2x150 base pair length, enabling deep coverage for whole genome, exome, or targeted panel applications. The service is optimized for oncogenomic profiling, inherited disease screening, pharmacogenomics, and anti-aging research.
| Feature | Our Test (2x150 HiSeq Single Lane) | Closest Alternative (Whole Exome Sequencing) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | Greater than 99.9% base accuracy at greater than 30x coverage | 95% to 98% target enrichment uniformity |
| Method | Illumina HiSeq 2x150 bp Paired-End Sequencing | Capture-based exome enrichment plus NGS |
| Turnaround Time | 3 weeks from sample receipt | 4 to 6 weeks from sample receipt |
| Genomic Coverage | Whole genome including non-coding regions | Protein-coding regions only (approximately 2% of genome) |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“As a Consultant Medical Genetics specialist, I emphasize that genomic sequencing data must always be interpreted within the full context of the patient’s clinical history, family pedigree, and phenotypic presentation. Variants of uncertain significance require cautious evaluation and should never be used as a standalone basis for clinical decisions. Our service includes mandatory post-test telephonic counselling to support patients and referring physicians in understanding results and planning next steps.”
— Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh, Consultant Medical Genetics, DHA Registration ID: 9294403
Advisory: Medication and Clinical Decision Precautions
- Do not discontinue, adjust, or initiate any prescribed medication based solely on sequencing results without consulting your referring physician or our clinical genetics team.
- All actionable findings require independent laboratory confirmation and correlation with clinical presentation before any medical intervention.
- Patients are encouraged to discuss all results with a qualified healthcare provider during the mandatory telephonic post-test counselling session.
Exclusion Criteria and Emergency Red Flags
- This genomic sequencing service is not a substitute for emergency medical evaluation. If you experience acute chest pain, severe headache, sudden neurological deficit, or any other emergency symptom, visit the nearest hospital emergency department immediately.
- Home collection is not available for individuals with active bleeding disorders, uncontrolled coagulation abnormalities, or unstable clinical conditions.
- Testing of minors requires explicit written consent from a parent or legal guardian in compliance with Federal Decree-Law No. 4 of 2016 on Medical Liability. Parental or guardian presence during phlebotomy is mandatory for all patients under 18 years of age.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the clinical advantage of 2x150 HiSeq sequencing compared to standard targeted gene panels?
Paired-end 150 bp reads at high coverage depth enable comprehensive detection of single nucleotide variants, insertions, deletions, copy number alterations, and structural rearrangements across the entire genome. This method captures both coding and non-coding regions, providing a complete genomic picture that targeted panels cannot achieve.
2. How is the biological sample collected and is fasting required?
An ISO-certified phlebotomist performs a standard venipuncture to collect whole blood in an EDTA tube. Alternatively, clients may submit previously extracted high-quality DNA. Fasting is not required for this test.
3. How does UAE data protection law safeguard my genetic information?
All genomic data is encrypted during transmission and at rest, stored exclusively on UAE-based servers, and processed in full compliance with Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on Personal Data Protection (PDPL) and Federal Law No. 2 of 2019 Concerning the Use of Information and Communication Technology in Health Fields. No genetic data is shared with third parties without explicit patient consent.
4. What happens if a medically actionable variant is found in a gene unrelated to the original test indication?
Secondary findings that meet the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) actionable gene list criteria are reported only with the patient's prior informed consent. Patients can opt in or opt out of receiving secondary findings during the consent process. Our genetics team provides telephonic counselling to explain any such findings and coordinate appropriate referrals.
5. How long does it take to receive the final clinical report?
The standard turnaround time is 3 weeks from the date of sample receipt at our Dubai Healthcare City laboratory. Urgent cases can be expedited with a reduced turnaround of 10 to 14 business days upon request and based on sequencing queue availability.
