Biolab offers CVD panel testing for genetic mutations

Biolab, the exclusive Biomnis dealer in the Kingdom, offers a Cardiovascular Disease CVD panel test for genetic mutations associated with blood clotting in the body, which is considered one of the latest tests in the diagnosis of heart disease.

Mutations covered in this panel include factor V Leiden – G1691A; R506Q, factor V R2 – H1299R, Prothrombin – G20210A, B-fibrinogen G455A, Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor, Platelet Glycoprotein, MTHFR C677T, MTHFR A1298C, Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE), as well as  Apolipoprotein B and Apolipoprotein E.
