Ncf4 Gene Granulomatous Disease Chronic Autosomal Recessive Cytochrome B Positive Type 3 Ngs Genetic Dna Test
Introduction
The Ncf4 Gene Granulomatous Disease Test is a cutting-edge genetic examination designed to identify mutations in the NCF4 gene, which can lead to chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). This condition is characterized by the body’s inability to effectively combat certain bacterial and fungal infections due to a defect in the immune system. Understanding your genetic makeup can be crucial for early diagnosis and management of this condition.
What the Test Measures
This test specifically detects mutations in the NCF4 gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. By analyzing the genetic material, healthcare providers can determine whether an individual is predisposed to CGD, allowing for timely intervention and treatment.
Who Should Consider This Test
Individuals with a family history of chronic granulomatous disease, particularly those exhibiting symptoms such as recurrent infections, should consider undergoing this test. Additionally, individuals who have a clinical history suggestive of CGD or those with known risk factors may benefit from testing.
Benefits of Taking the Test
- Early identification of genetic predisposition to chronic granulomatous disease.
- Informed decisions regarding treatment and management strategies.
- Access to genetic counseling for affected family members.
- Peace of mind through understanding your genetic health.
Understanding Your Results
Results from the Ncf4 Gene Granulomatous Disease Test will indicate whether any mutations in the NCF4 gene were detected. A genetic counselor or healthcare provider will help interpret the results and discuss the implications for you and your family.

| Ncf4 Gene Granulomatous Disease Test | 40,000 KSh | 56,000 KSh |
Sample Type and Turnaround Time
The test can be conducted using blood or extracted DNA, or even a single drop of blood on an FTA card. The turnaround time for results is approximately 3 to 4 weeks.
Pre-Test Instructions
Before taking the Ncf4 Gene Granulomatous Disease Test, it is essential to have a clinical history reviewed by a healthcare provider. A genetic counseling session is recommended to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the NCF4 gene.
