THE TEST THAT DETECTS CONDITIONS BEFORE THE CHILD SHOWS SYMPTOMS
Babynext® helps you prevent damage caused by a diagnosis made too late.
Babynext® does its best for the serenity of your family.
What is Babynext®?
Babynext® is a non-invasive postnatal screening test that is performed on the baby with a simple oral swab. The extracted DNA is then analyzed to detect any anomalies related to over 200 genetic conditions.
It’s an early analysis that helps parents and pediatricians to identify these conditions in the early stages of the baby’s life, in order to prevent the onset of symptoms and/or cure them. For all conditions identified by Babynext®, a treatment is possible. The earlier these conditions are identified, the more prompt and timely the treatment will be.
Exome preservation
In addition to reporting on the genes investigated, Babynext® provides exome sequencing, the set of DNA regions that encode the DNA that contain the “instructions” necessary for protein production, whose data will be stored for 18 years.
More and more often, some clinical symptoms cannot be found in routine diagnosis. Genetic testing can solve this problem.
Exome preservation makes genetic data immediately available for a specific exam reducing waiting times for answers and the need for further testing.
Eurofins Genoma: by your children’s side, from birth to adulthood.
- The exome will be stored according to the rules for storing digital data and these data will be accessible until the child reaches adulthood and then transferred to the adult.
- If the child needs to undergo further exams in the future, he or she can always do so at our laboratories: having already stored his or her exome, we will start the analysis without long waits.
- The results of these further exams will then be discussed in a new genetic consultation for the result.
Who is Babynext® recommended for?
It is advisable to carry out as soon as possible for a timely diagnosis and possible taking charge of the child. All children, from birth to 3 years even without apparent symptoms.
Exome preservation can also be extended to older brothers and sisters.
How is it performed?
The Babynext® test is performed with a simple mouth swab. You can request it from your trusted doctor or book it at one of our centers.
Genetic counseling pre- and post-test is included with Babynext®.
