PAX3 Gene Waardenburg Syndrome Type 1 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the PAX3 Gene Waardenburg Syndrome Type 1 Genetic Test. This test is designed to identify mutations in the PAX3 gene, which is associated with Waardenburg syndrome type 1 (WS1). WS1 is a genetic disorder characterized by hearing loss, changes in pigmentation of the hair, skin, and eyes, and other developmental abnormalities.
Test Components and Price
Our PAX3 Gene Waardenburg Syndrome Type 1 Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test requires a sample of either blood, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery and Method
The report for this test will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. We use NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology to analyze the DNA sample and detect any genetic mutations or variations associated with WS1.
Test Type and Doctor
This test falls under the category of Osteology Dermatology Immunology Disorders. It is recommended to consult with a dermatologist for this test.
Test Department and Pre Test Information
This test is conducted in our Genetics department. Before taking the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is going for the PAX3 Gene Waardenburg Syndrome Type 1 Genetic Test. A Genetic Counselling session may also be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the syndrome.
Test Details
The PAX3 gene is responsible for causing Waardenburg syndrome type 1. Our NGS genetic testing technique allows us to analyze multiple genes simultaneously and identify mutations in the PAX3 gene associated with WS1. To conduct the test, we require a DNA sample, usually obtained through a blood sample or saliva swab. The DNA sample is then sequenced using NGS technology to identify any variations or mutations in the PAX3 gene. This information is crucial for a definitive diagnosis of WS1 and can be used for genetic counseling, determining the risk of passing the syndrome on to future generations, and guiding treatment and management strategies for individuals with WS1.

Test Details |
The PAX3 gene is associated with Waardenburg syndrome type 1 (WS1), which is a genetic disorder characterized by hearing loss, changes in pigmentation of the hair, skin, and eyes, and other developmental abnormalities. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a technique used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously, allowing for the detection of genetic mutations and variations that may be associated with a particular disorder or condition. In the case of WS1, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations in the PAX3 gene that are responsible for causing the syndrome. The NGS genetic test for WS1 involves obtaining a DNA sample, usually through a blood sample or saliva swab, from the individual suspected of having the syndrome. The DNA sample is then sequenced using NGS technology to identify any variations or mutations in the PAX3 gene. By identifying specific mutations in the PAX3 gene, NGS genetic testing can provide a definitive diagnosis of WS1. This information can be used for genetic counseling, to determine the risk of passing the syndrome on to future generations, and to guide treatment and management strategies for individuals with WS1. |
