Hearing Loss Susceptibility GenoArray Diagnostic Kit is designed for the rapid, high throughput screening of known hotspot mutations related to hereditary hearing loss. Thirteen mutations in four genes (GJB2, GJB3,SLC26A4 and 12S rRNA) are evaluated simultaneously.Knowledge of the mutations can help to identify hearing impairment at birth, to avoid taking certain types of antibiotics which are known to cause deafness in children carrying certain gene mutations.
Detection of 13 mutations on the 4 most common genes related to hereditary hearing impairment
US patented “Flow-through Hybridization Technology”
Compatible for use with whole blood, cord blood, dried blood spot and amniotic fluid samples
Include amplification control (IC) and hybridization control (Biotin) for monitoring of the entire detection process
Advantage
1.Rapid and accurate identification of mutations related to G6PD deficiency in one single test
2.Easy to operate with 1 hour hands-on time, result available within 3 hours
3.Simple and direct result interpretation
4.Effective and cost-efficient
5.Able to differentiate homozygous/ heterozygous carrier
