What is Thalassemia Genetic Testing:
Thalassemia is one of the most common monogenic genetic disorders in the world, mainly distributed in Mediterranean region, Middle East, Africa, India and Southeast Asia. As both parents are carriers (thalassemia trait), their child has a 25% chance of being healthy (without the thalassemia gene), a 50% chance of being a carrier, and a 25% chance with thalassemia major.Service:
Genetic testing of thalassemia can screen carriers and identify affected status for α and β thalassemia by using Sanger sequencing, Gap-PCR, qPCR or Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). This test covers all the possible mutations, deletions and repeats.Advantages:
