Test Code: PNL133

Hereditary red cell membrane disorders [including: hereditary spherocytosis, elliptocytosis, pyropoikilocytosis, and stomatocystosis] (14 Genes)

Haematogenetics
This targeted next‑generation sequencing panel analyzes genes associated with inherited defects of the red blood cell membrane, including hereditary spherocytosis, elliptocytosis, pyropoikilocytosis, and stomatocytosis. Mutations in these genes can lead to abnormal red cell structure, reduced stability, and hemolytic anemia.
Sample Type
3 ml peripheral blood in EDTA (purple/pink top) tube
Turnaround Time
3 weeks days
Courier Requirements
Ship overnight at room temperature to receive next day. Do not refrigerate or freeze. Maintain specimen at room temperature.
