Reference values Modification

Test code: 2532

Effective update from 27/07/2018

PREVIOUS

NEW

Not detected.       * Fiability of the test: 99 %

Not detected.    Technique: DNA extraction and subsequent     amplification by real-time PCR, for    detection of C282Y, H63D and S65C    mutations related to hemochromatosis.     Note: C282Y mutation is observed     in homozygous state in 75-90% of patients     diagnosed with hemochromatosis.     C282Y / H63D genotype occurs in 5% of those     patients, being advisable to carry out      periodic controls of the saturation      index of transferrin and ferritin.      Presence of H63D mutation in homozygous state     leads to biochemical alterations,      but the clinical manifestations of the disease      are rare.      S65C variant does not influence on     iron metabolism markers.
