Genetic testing is a technique that detects information about an individual’s genome. It can help people learn about their genome.
Including their risk for genetic diseases, their ability to metabolize drugs, their health status and more.
Why do we need?
Here are some possible reasons:
Identify a gene for a genetic disease or carry a genetic susceptibility gene for further diagnosis or treatment of the disease.
They are diseases cause by changes in chromosomes and genes, which have familial and congenital characteristics, such as hemophilia, albinism and color blindness.
And can help people find out if they carry the genes that predispose them to these diseases, so that they can take preventive or therapeutic measures and learn about their individual inheritance.
And can help people understand their genome information, including the individual’s genotype, drug metabolism ability, health status, so as to better health management and disease prevention, to avoid ineffective treatment.
For some inherited metabolic diseases, accurate diagnosis can avoid ineffective treatment.
Genetic metabolic diseases, Per esempio, most often character by nonspecific manifestations of the nervous system. Accurate diagnosis of genetic metabolic diseases can avoid adverse consequences caused by the wrong use of drugs.
Relation
To help researchers understand the relationship between genes and disease.
Data from genetic tests can help researchers understand the relationship between genes and disease, so they can better study disease prevention and treatment.
Tuttavia, it should note that genetic testing is not intended to give everyone a perfect health plan, but to provide more information and options, while the following points should be noted:
Genetic testing is not a complete predictor of an individual’s health.
Which can only provide some possible risks and predictions, but it does not fully predict an individual’s health status.
Because genetics is only one factor affecting health, other environmental factors can also play a role.
Genetic testing requires testing for specific diseases and genes.
Not all diseases can diagnose by genetic testing, only those associated with specific genes.
The results need to interpret by professional institutions and professional doctors before accurate conclusions can be drawn.
Perciò, it is necessary to be careful when choosing genetic testing institutions and doctors.
Sum up
To sum up, genetic testing plays an important role in understanding individual heredity, diagnosing and treating diseases, and studying the relationship between genes and diseases.
What’s in the MEDICO Genetic testing kit?
Genetic testing kit is also called gene test sample kit.
1、two individually packaged sterile flocking swabs
