Genetic Carrier Screening involves DNA-based testing aimed at identifying individuals or couples with an elevated risk of having children affected by severe inherited genetic disorders. This screening aids families in making informed reproductive decisions. Our services encompass a variety of carrier screening options, capable of screening for up to 420 genes linked to a wide range of common inherited conditions, such as Cystic Fibrosis, Spinal Muscular Atrophy, and Fragile X Syndrome. Our testing is thorough and exceptionally accurate, empowering prospective parents to make informed reproductive choices in a timely manner.

About The Test
Our Extended Carrier Screening provides a comprehensive screening option, encompassing 420 genes, including those associated with Cystic Fibrosis, Spinal Muscular Atrophy, and Fragile X. Our testing is thorough and accurate, empowering prospective parents to make informed reproductive choices.
This panel covers genes linked to over 700 unique commonly inherited diseases, including prevalent forms of inherited deafness, blindness, heart disease, immunodeficiency, as well as various ataxias, anemias, and treatable metabolic syndromes.
If your gene of interest isn’t covered on our carrier screening panels, or if you have a blood relative who is a carrier of (or affected by) an inherited disorder, a targeted panel may be more suitable to detect the specific gene or mutation. Please reach out to us, and our team will assist you in finding a gene panel tailored to your specific needs.
GENETIC CARRIERS
Most individuals carry faulty genes that can potentially lead to health issues for their children. Genes serve as instructions guiding the development and functioning of our bodies, with each person possessing two copies of each gene. When an individual has one working copy of a gene and one faulty copy, they are termed as a carrier. Being a carrier means:
You won’t experience the health problem associated with the faulty gene yourself.
However, you can pass on your copy of the faulty gene to any children you have.
If both you and your partner are carriers for the same condition, every child you conceive will have a 1 in 4 chance of being born with the condition. Additionally, every child you have will have a 1 in 2 chance of being a carrier, possessing one faulty gene.
