The cost of an NGS DNA test in India starts from
₹20,000
depending on different parameters on whether you are being tested for only a specific area(s) of a gene known to be abnormal or if hundreds and thousands of areas are being examined within multiple genes.
What is the NGS DNA test?
NGS DNA test stands for Next Generation Sequencing, it is a cutting-edge genetic technology for screening multiple locations inside hundreds and thousands of genes. The genes are completely screened for every mutation which is identified with the highest resolution. The technology screens all the genes at a faster speed and provide more accurate and reliable more high-resolution data. Higher-resolution reads provide the smallest details in the genes up to every single basis in the DNA sequence.
What is a clinical exome?
Clinical exome
sequencing uses a technology called Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). It is different from traditional genetic testing because it allows a large number of genes (sections of DNA) to be tested at the same time. Sequencing means we can look for gene changes (variants) that may cause genetic conditions. A clinical exome can be very useful if you have a medical condition that may be caused by one or more gene changes and when it’s not clear exactly which gene the change is in. It is most useful when your doctor has some idea of which gene or genes may have a chance.
What is Whole Exome?
The
Whole Exome
Sequencing Test is a cost-effective alternative to Whole Genome Sequencing. The human exome consists of approximately 180,000 exons, which constitute about 1-2% of the human genome. This test is performed by Next Generation Sequencing. These exon protein-coding regions harbour variants which are much more likely to have severe consequences than those in the remaining 99% of the genome. Instead of incurring the time and cost of sequencing the whole genome, many researchers and clinicians can obtain the decision-making data they need by sequencing the exome.
What is BRCA Test?
A
BRCA
genetic test looks for changes, known as mutations, in genes called BRCA1 and BRCA2. Genes are parts of DNA passed down from your mother and father. They carry information that determines your unique traits, such as height and eye colour. Genes are also responsible for certain health conditions. BRCA1 and BRCA2 are genes that protect cells by making proteins that help prevent tumours from forming.
