INFO | COST

The flow FISH technique is labor intensive and involves sophisticated equipment, so the costs are generally higher than with the simpler, less informative PCR based techniques.

Only the flow FISH technique generates accurate, reproducible, multi-parameter data.

As fewer tests are required to establish significant differences in telomere length between test subjects and controls, the greater accuracy of the flow FISH technique can result in cost savings.
"Invest in better, accurate and reproducible information."


BASIC PROCEDURE (no antibodies)

Telomere length is measured for total lymphocyte and granulocyte populations.
The price of a BASIC PROCEDURE starts at US$ 350.

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (including antibodies)

Telomere length is measured for total lymphocyte and granulocyte populations as well as in B-cells, T-cells and NK cells.
This test is recommended for patients and their relatives, when inherited deficiencies in telomere maintenance are suspected. Such diseases include dyskeratosis congenita, aplastic anemia, pulmonary fibrosis, liver cirrhosis and other dysplastic disorders, caused by mutations in telomerase genes.
The price of a DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE starts at US$ 650.
