Genetic Services
Delivering clinically validated genetic testing to support diagnosis, monitoring, and patient care across specialist and tertiary services.
Custom Research & Development
In addition to the specific tests listed, our molecular genetics expertise is available for contract research projects in human and animal diagnosis, screening, or bespoke assay development.
Even if your current needs are being met elsewhere, contact us as we may offer cost savings and faster turnaround times.
Genetic Testing
Genetic Profiling
Genetic profiling for human remains and relationship testing.
HFE Gene Mutations
Screening for Haemochromatosis-related variants.
Prothrombin and Factor V Mutations
Detection of common clotting-factor mutations.
Targeted Areas For Development
- Expanded screening for human genetic disorders
- Animal pedigree testing
- Pharmacogenetic profiling for therapeutic response or drug trials
- Apo E typing and disease susceptibility screening
Specimen Requirements
A minimum of 200 µl EDTA or citrated whole blood is required for most tests.
Paternity testing can be performed on cheek swabs, and forensic DNA profiling
accepts a wide range of sample types.
