Find Clarity About Inherited Metabolic Conditions
When your child shows unexplained symptoms or there’s a family history of metabolic disorders, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our MMAA Gene Methylmalonic Aciduria CblA Type test provides the answers you need with medical-grade accuracy and compassionate care.
Understanding Your MMAA Gene Test
This advanced genetic test examines your MMAA gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic testing. The MMAA gene plays a crucial role in breaking down certain proteins and fats in your body. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to Methylmalonic Aciduria CblA type, a serious metabolic condition that affects how your body processes nutrients.
Unlike basic screening tests, our NGS technology provides comprehensive analysis of the entire MMAA gene, ensuring no mutation goes undetected. This thorough approach gives you and your healthcare provider complete information for making informed decisions about treatment and management.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is essential if you or your loved one experiences:
- Unexplained vomiting, lethargy, or poor feeding in infants
- Developmental delays or failure to thrive
- Metabolic crises with high acid levels in the blood
- Family history of Methylmalonic Aciduria or similar metabolic disorders

Many South African families find peace of mind through early detection, preventing years of uncertainty and potential health complications.
