DNA Genetic Tests: HLA-B*1502 Detection

  • Required only hours from blood sample to results
  • Designed for easy operation & analysis
  • Validated accuracy with 4500+ patients samples* & DNA sequencing
  • Protected by US, Europe, & world wide patents
  • CE Marked IVD Kit Product Sheet <download - A4 / Letter>

Many studies have demonstrated the strong association of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA-B*1502) and carbamazepine, phenytoin, & oxcarbazepine induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). Individuals that use DNA tests to determine their HLA genotypes prior to taking these drugs can reduce their risks of developing SJS/TEN by as high as 1300 times.
