Title:

Advancements in Genetic Testing

Description:

Genetic testing identifies changes in the chromosome structure or DNA sequence. It is also used to identify changes in genes and proteins, and it also plays a great role in diagnosing genetic disorders and the healthcare industry. In the 1950s, the first genetic prenatal screens were developed as early advancements with the discovery of additional copies of chromosome 21, which caused Down’s syndrome with the development of the karyotyping test, combined with the ability to collect foetal cells from a pregnant woman’s amniotic fluid. Genetic testing can be divided into two eras: Before the Humana Genome Project and after the Human Genome Project. The defining event between them was the announcement of the first draft of the human genome in 2000, a breakthrough in Genetic Testing.

Advancements in Genetic Testing Genetic testing
identifies changes in the chromosome structure or
DNA sequence. It is also used to identify
changes in genes and proteins, and it also plays
a great role in diagnosing genetic disorders and
the healthcare industry. In the 1950s, the first
genetic prenatal screens were developed as early
advancements with the discovery of additional
copies of chromosome 21, which caused Downs
syndrome with the development of the karyotyping
test, combined with the ability to collect foetal
cells from a pregnant womans amniotic
fluid. Genetic testing can be divided into two
eras Before the Humana Genome Project and after
the Human Genome Project. The defining event
between them was the announcement of the first
draft of the human genome in 2000, a breakthrough
in Genetic Testing. In the present scenario,
genetic testing techniques such as whole exome
sequencing and microarrays have increased the
accessibility of genetic testing by providing
quick and cost- effective data. The whole-genome
sequencing technique uses in the protein-coding
region of the genome, and the microarrays
technique probe for sets of specific variations
in the DNA. With advancements in genetic testing,
leading companies like Genesight and BiogeniQ
have improved upon traditional whole-genome
testing platforms by analyzing how a subset of a
patients genes may affect their medication
outcomes at a fraction of the cost. Results from
these technologies can inform doctors about how
each patient may respond to certain medications
and avoid unsafe and ineffective
medications. For the complete in-depth article
