Development of the alpha thalassemia gene assay kit

พัฒนาชุดทดสอบยีนอัลฟ่าธาลัสซีเมีย thaihealth

Tests of Abnormalities of Alpha Thalassemia Gene 1 of Department of Medical Sciences Ministry of Public Health Thai Innovation The most severe form of fetal thalassemia is known.

Dr. Suksan Kanjanapai, Director-General of the Department of Medical Sciences, said that the government has a policy to promote the accounting of Thai innovation. To support Thailand's innovative products and services using the government market. It also promotes research and development of Thai innovations to produce commercially viable standards. The latest Bureau ofread more Alpha Thalassemia 1 (Alpha-thalassemia 1) was developed by the Institute of Public Health Sciences. And the Institute of Medical Biomedical Sciences Department of Medical Sciences Ministry of Public Health Was announced for innovative Thai Medical Supplies The name of the company is DMSC α-thal1 (DMSc α-thal1 test kit). Gene Expression Co., Ltd.

       Director of the Department of Medical Sciences said the alpha thalassemia gene test kit 1 is used to assess the risk of pregnant women and their spouses of potential births. Hb Bart's Hydrops Fetalis This disease is caused by the acute thalassemia gene from both parents. This will make children unable to create an alpha-type glider. As a result, children develop pale skin and swelling (hydrops) from the mother's womb until the pregnancy is nearing maturity. Children will die in the stomach. Or after a few minutes. Thalassemia is the most severe type of thalassemia and one of three severe thalassemia in accordance with the policy statement of Thalassemia Prevention and Control and abnormal hemoglobinemia in Thailand. The reagent kit used in the test kit is a diagnostic reagent kit. Alpha Thalassemia 1 was reported in two Thai populations, Southeast Asean (SEA) and Thai type, using Relative Quantitative PCR technique. This is the first scientific innovation in the world that can detect abnormalities of the two alpha thalassemia genes at one time. It reduces the procedure and duration from 6 hours to 3 hours in one set. The solution consists of 3 pairs of Probe 3 pairs of Probe 3 and 2X Real-time PCR Master Mix for Thal 001 code or solution pack consisting of 3 pairs of Probe 3 Product Code for Thal 002

    "Last year, Department of Medical Sciences Signed a contract to transfer technology to test the abnormalities of the alpha thalassemia gene 1 with Gene Exelon Co., Ltd. for private companies to produce and commercially sell at reasonable prices. Under the supervision of knowledge and technology of the Department of Medical Sciences. The announcement of this innovative account would be beneficial for public sector procurement. This will allow the government to access and utilize innovation from Thai research and development. Standard and cost effective. It also reduces purchases and imports from abroad, "said Dr. Suk.
