Nx Gen Sequencing Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Test

Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the Nx Gen Sequencing Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Test. This genetic test utilizes next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations in the TSC1 and TSC2 genes.

Test Components

• TSC1
• TSC2

Test Cost

The cost of the Nx Gen Sequencing Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Test is AED 4400.0.

Symptoms and Diagnosis

Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare genetic disorder that affects multiple organ systems and causes the growth of noncancerous tumors in various parts of the body. Our NGS-based TSC test can accurately and sensitively detect mutations in the TSC1 and TSC2 genes, enabling early diagnosis and personalized treatment of TSC patients. The test can also be used for carrier screening and prenatal diagnosis of TSC.

Sample Requirements

To perform the Nx Gen Sequencing Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Test, please submit 10 mL (5 mL minimum) of whole blood from 2 Lavender Top (EDTA) tubes. The samples should be shipped refrigerated and must not be frozen. Additionally, a duly filled Clinical Exome Testing Requisition Form (Form 36) is mandatory.

Report Delivery

Once the sample is received, the report will be delivered within 30 days. Please ensure that the sample is submitted by 9 am daily.

Method

The Nx Gen Sequencing Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Test utilizes NGS technology combined with Sanger sequencing.
