HBB (Beta Thalassemia ) gene sequencing1
FAQ
Who is at risk for Beta Thalassemia, and how common is it?
Beta Thalassemia is an inherited disorder, most common in people from Africa, the Mediterranean, the Middle East, India, and Southeast Asia. It's the most common inherited cause of anaemia, with thousands of new cases diagnosed each year.
What is the likelihood of passing Beta Thalassemia to my children if I have the HBB gene?
If you carry one defective HBB gene (beta thalassemia minor), there's a 50% chance of passing this gene to your children. If both parents are carriers, the child has a 25% chance of inheriting two defective HBB genes and developing beta-thalassemia.
Are there different types of mutations in the HBB gene, and how do they affect Beta Thalassemia?
Yes, there are different types of mutations in the HBB gene that cause beta-thalassemia. Some mutations, known as β+ mutations, reduce the level of β-globin production, while β0 mutations eliminate it. The type of mutation affects the severity of beta-thalassemia.
What are the different types of Beta Thalassemia, and how are they treated?
Types include Beta Thalassemia major, intermedia, and minor, varying in severity. Treatments can consist of blood transfusions, iron chelation therapy, folic acid supplements, and in some cases, bone marrow and stem cell transplants.

Sterling Accuris Diagnostics is pleased to offer the HBB (Beta Thalassemia) Gene Sequencing Test in Modasa, an advanced diagnostic tool for detecting Beta Thalassemia.
Overview of the HBB (Beta Thalassemia) Gene Sequencing Test
This test analyses the HBB gene, responsible for Beta Thalassemia, a genetic blood disorder that affects the body's ability to produce haemoglobin. Haemoglobin is crucial for red blood cells to carry oxygen.
The test covers all coding nucleotides of the HBB gene, including key areas responsible for the production of beta-globin, a component of haemoglobin. Beta Thalassemia can lead to anaemia, where the body lacks enough red blood cells to supply oxygen effectively.
Symptoms can vary based on the type and severity but often include fatigue, weakness, pale or yellowish skin, facial bone deformities, slow growth, abdominal swelling, and dark urine. In severe cases, it can cause anaemia, leading to tiredness and shortness of breath, making the HBB (Beta Thalassemia) Gene Sequencing Test in Modasa a crucial step in diagnosis.
Why and When is the Test Done?
Recommended for:
- Individuals with symptoms like fatigue, weakness, or anaemia.
- Those with a family history of Beta Thalassemia.
- Expectant parents with a family history of the disorder or carriers of the gene mutation.
Main Highlights
Instructions: A doctor’s prescription is required.
Recommended Age: Applicable for all ages, often diagnosed in childhood.
Sample Type for Test: Whole blood in EDTA tubes or buccal swabs.
TAT: Results are typically available within 5-7 days
