Infectious Disease Genetic Testing in Islamabad, Pakistan
Infectious disease medicine addresses infections caused by various pathogens. At Zarqa Genomics Lab (ZGL), our genetic testing helps identify specific pathogens and genetic susceptibilities, leading to accurate diagnoses and customized treatment plans to effectively manage and treat infectious diseases.
Revolutionizing infectious disease with genetic testing
We enhance infectious disease management through advanced genetic testing. Our cutting-edge technology quickly identifies pathogens and provides insights into antibiotic resistance and virulence. This precision approach enables targeted treatments, reduces infection spread and improves patient outcomes.
Services we offer
Whole Exome Sequencing (WES)
Analyses all protein-coding genes to identify mutations related to infectious disease susceptibility and progression.
Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS)
Provides a comprehensive view of the entire genome to detect genetic variations impacting infection risk and treatment responses.
Genetic panels
Focused panels for specific infectious conditions.
| Infectious condition | Genes in the panel |
|---|---|
| HIV | CCR5 and HLA-B*57 |
| Tuberculosis | IFNG and IL12RB1 |
| Hepatitis B and C | IL28B and NAT2 |
| Malaria | G6PD and HBB |
Why genetic testing for infectious diseases?
Genetic testing is crucial for understanding the genetic predispositions and responses to infections. Our advanced genetic services can:
Identify susceptibility
Detect genetic variations that increase susceptibility to specific infections.
Guide treatment
Personalize treatment strategies based on genetic profiles, enhancing effectiveness and minimizing adverse effects.
Understand resistance
Uncover genetic mechanisms behind antibiotic or antiviral resistance.
Unmasking hidden infection risks
Ever wondered why some infections hit you harder than others? Could your genes be the reason your treatments fail? At ZGL, our genetic testing can uncover these critical factors, helping you take control of your health before it’s too late.
