Find Clarity for Your Child’s Neurological Health
When your baby shows unexplained developmental delays or neurological symptoms, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. As South African parents, you deserve definitive answers about rare genetic conditions like Zellweger syndrome spectrum disorders. Our PEX1 Gene NGS DNA Test provides the medical clarity and peace of mind your family needs to navigate these challenging health concerns with confidence.
Understanding the PEX1 Gene Zellweger Syndrome Test
This advanced genetic test examines the PEX1 gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic testing. The PEX1 gene plays a crucial role in peroxisome function, and mutations can lead to Zellweger syndrome spectrum disorders, which affect brain development, liver function, and overall growth in infants.
We make complex genetic information accessible and understandable. Our test doesn’t just provide results – it provides answers with context through included genetic counselling sessions.
Who Should Consider This Important Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important for South African families experiencing:
- Infants with unexplained developmental delays or failure to thrive
- Babies showing neurological symptoms like seizures or muscle weakness
- Children with distinctive facial features associated with peroxisomal disorders
- Families with a history of Zellweger syndrome or related conditions
- Parents concerned about rare genetic disorders after abnormal newborn screening
- Couples planning pregnancy with family history of neurological disorders
Early detection can significantly impact treatment planning and family preparation.
