GENOME BOOK

Genome control GenomeBookTM for all family members.

Knowing the clinical value of my genome analysis

 

  • Knowledge of the genome means knowledge of life
  • Knowing the clinical value of analyzing my genome for disease prevention, wellness, anti- aging and protecting my health and that of my family members
  • Knowing my personalized gene profile regarding my response to my medications, vitamins and important nutrients
  • Knowing my genome and protecting my offspring

Genome Book™

The Genome Book gene test is suitable for anyone interested in learning about the sequence of their genome (the whole analysis of their genes), allowing access to a wide range of genetic information related to their health as well as that of children.

Knowing the clinical value of my genome analysis. By choosing this particular gene test, you have the opportunity to know if you are a carrier of inherited genetic disease transmissions. You will also be aware of the personal genetic risks associated with common diseases such as cardiovascular, oncological and neurodegenerative, etc. aiming at the prevention and proper management of your diseases.

Knowing my personalized gene profile regarding my response to my Medication, Vitamins and important nutrients.

Our response to Medication, Vitamins and important nutrients is determined by our genetic profile.

Knowing our personalized genetic profile and adopting a healthy lifestyle, you adjust an individualized medication dose with your doctor in case of illness, avoiding possible side effects, significantly improving the outcome of your medication and improving your nutritional interaction with your nutritionist.

Knowing my genome, protecting my offspring.

Carriers of mutations in serious genetic diseases are usually healthy people completely free of symptoms, where 80% of carriers do not know their genetic history.

However, they could pass it on to their offspring with considerable probability
Knowing that you could be a carrier of one of these genetic diseases, you could avoid passing them on to your future children.

INDICATIONS OF THE GENOM BOOK™ GENOME TEST

The Genome Book gene test is indicated:

  • As an extended genetic test in infants, children and adults according to the guidelines and recommendations of Medical Genetics
  • In patients with diseases that show heterogeneous and unclear clinical phenotype (eg autism, developmental disorders, metabolic syndromes, mental retardation, epilepsy) as well as in patients with unrecognized clinical phenotype.
  • In patients with rare and diagnostic difficulties in diseases in the context of genetic investigation of the disease by the treating Physician
  • In pediatric and adult patients with cardiovascular, neurological, endocrinological, oncological, gastrointestinal, respiratory (asthma), musculoskeletal, developmental, metabolic / nutritional, hematological, otolaryngological, opthalmological, nephrological and autoimmune dissorders as well as patients woti fertility problems

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GENOME BOOK™ GENE TEST

  • It is the non-invasive Whole Genome Sequencing, an extended clinical analysis, which allows the complete sequencing of human genome genes using laboratory use of the latest generation technology (Next Generation Sequencing). It includes the molecular control of '20,000 genes and the identification of '85% of the genetic variants of DNA (mutations) associated with the appearance (phenotype) of genetic syndromes and disorders in childhood and adulthood.
  • A standard methodology for processing and analyzing genetic material (DNA) is followed using the most certified state-of-the-art platform (Novaseq-Illumina).
  • It covers > 95% of the DNA sequence with a depth of analysis of x100 for all DNA genes (Whole Genome Sequencing), enabling the control of intron regions to investigate disturbances during the RNA splicing process. The Genome Book TM provides the option to choose either the test for the entire genome (Genome) or only for the exome coding regions (Exome). Although the majority of disease-related mutations are located primarily in the exon region, the entire genome sequence provides a broader coverage of the mutations and allows for a more complete analysis of the human genetic code.
  • It offers the possibility of genetic analysis of both the person concerned (solo) and his parents (trio), with the simultaneous interpretation of the results and the genetic counseling with clear recommendations and directions in the context of the differential diagnosis of diseases or disorders by the treating Doctor.
  • It provides a comprehensive set of more than 20 laboratory reports, per clinical indication with weight in the medical history of the person concerned, detecting only the genetic variants (mutations) that are certified associated with human diseases, disorders or syndromes under international guidelines.
  • It prrovides a set of reliable laboratory reports focusing on the well-being and quality of life of healthy subjects with a focus on pharmacogenomics (genetic control of the metabolism of over 120 drugs and other nutrients such as vitamins and fatty acids) as well as the presence of and diseases.
  • The Genome Book genetic test can be requested either by your GP or you can perform it voluntarily in the context of self-care under the professional guidance of a certified Health Scientist (Doctor, Dentist, Pharmacist, Nutritionist, Physiotherapist, Speech Therapist etc.).
  • Performed in a saliva sample for adults and in a saliva coating sample for infants and children using a non-invasive for human use CE, special collection kit (Genome BookTM - Collection Kit)
  • By filling out the consent form, you can easily and painlessly collect your saliva or bug swab sample from newborns / children according to the enclosed collection instructions and return the Kit to the laboratories of Biogenea Pharmaceuticals Ltd. to begin the process of your genetic analysis

The Genome Book gene test allows you to make an appointment with a Medical Geneticist at Biogenea Pharmaceuticals Ltd. providing reputable genetic counseling and support before, during and after your gene analysis process as well as interpreting your results by contacting your doctor. The results forms are issued and signed in a short period of time (30 days) by the scientific manager, Director of the Clinical Laboratory, Dr. Nikolaos G. Grigoriadis, D Ph.D Medical Genetics.

The biological material of each donor is registered anonymously immediately upon receipt by the laboratories of Biogenea Pharmaceuticals Ltd and all your personal information remains confidential in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Authority.
