MTHFR (Methylene Tetrahydrofolate reductase) Gene Mutation, Qualitative PCR (N049)
Also Known As:
MTHFR PCR
MTHFR (Methylene Tetrahydrofolate Reductase) Gene Mutation
Qualitative PCR MTHFR Methylene Tetrahydrofolate Reductase
About This Test
Homozygous mutation for MTHFR (Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) is associated with Hyperhomocysteinemia which is an independent risk factor for stroke, MI, peripheral arterial disease and venous thrombosis. Indian studies suggest that heterozygosity for MTHFR C677T is also associated with elevated homocysteine levels. This assay detects both C677T and A1298C mutation.

Physician prescription is mandatory.
The MTHFR (Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase) test is important because it detects genetic variations in the MTHFR gene that can affect folate metabolism and homocysteine levels.
TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
In uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to test complexity or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed of the estimated TAT at the time of registration.
