What are the symptoms of this disorder?
Symptoms include delayed development, intellectual disability, seizures, abnormal muscle tone, abnormal movements, microcephaly, and facial dysmorphism.
How is the disorder diagnosed?
Diagnosis is through genetic testing, specifically Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), to identify mutations in the SLC35A1 gene.
What is the cost of the NGS Genetic Test in India?
The cost is approximately INR 20,000 at DNA Labs India, with possible variations based on location and test specifics.
Is home sample collection available?
Yes, DNA Labs India offers free home sample collection for online bookings across many cities in India.
How long does it take to get the test results?
Results are typically available within 3 to 4 weeks after sample collection.
What sample type is required for the test?
The test requires blood, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Is fasting required before the test?
Fasting is generally not required for this genetic test, but follow any specific instructions provided.
Who should consider this test?
Individuals with symptoms of glycosylation disorders or a family history of the condition should consider this test.
What does a positive result mean?
A positive result indicates the presence of pathogenic mutations in the SLC35A1 gene, confirming the diagnosis of Glycosylation Disorder Type 2F.
Can this test be used for prenatal diagnosis?
This test is typically for postnatal diagnosis; prenatal testing may require different methods and genetic counseling.
Are there any risks associated with the test?
Risks are minimal, primarily related to blood draw, such as bruising or infection at the puncture site.
