Find Clarity About Metabolic Health Concerns
When your body isn’t functioning as it should, and you’re experiencing unexplained symptoms, it can feel overwhelming and isolating. You deserve answers about your metabolic health, especially when it comes to rare conditions like 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase 2 deficiency. Our MCCC2 Gene Deficiency Test provides the clarity and peace of mind you need to move forward with confidence in your health journey.
Understanding the MCCC2 Gene Deficiency Test
This specialised genetic test examines your MCCC2 gene using advanced Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations that cause 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase 2 deficiency. This is a rare metabolic disorder where your body struggles to break down certain proteins properly, potentially leading to serious health complications if undiagnosed. Our test provides definitive answers with 99.9% accuracy, giving you the information needed for proper management and treatment.
Who Should Consider This Test?
If you or your child experience any of these symptoms, this test could provide life-changing answers:
- Unexplained vomiting, lethargy, or poor feeding in infants
- Developmental delays or muscle weakness
- Metabolic acidosis episodes after illness or fasting
- Family history of metabolic disorders or sudden infant death
- Unexplained hypoglycaemia or abnormal organic acid levels
- Previous abnormal newborn screening results
Early detection through genetic testing can prevent serious complications and guide appropriate dietary and medical management.
