Test Code Billings Clinic: 7643 Mayo: CFMP Cystic Fibrosis, CFTR Gene, Variant Panel, Varies
Ordering Guidance
If testing is negative, and a diagnosis of cystic fibrosis is still suspected, consider CFTRZ / CFTR Gene, Full Gene Analysis, Varies.
Targeted testing for familial variants (also called site-specific or known mutation testing) is available for all genes on this panel under FMTT / Familial Variant, Targeted Testing, Varies. Call 800-533-1710 to obtain more information about this testing option.
Shipping Instructions
Specimen preferred to arrive within 96 hours of collection.
Necessary Information
If there is a family history of cystic fibrosis, the known variant in the family should be supplied for best interpretation of results.
Specimen Required
Specimen Type: Whole blood
Patient Preparation: A previous bone marrow transplant from an allogenic donor will interfere with testing. Call 800-533-1710 for instructions for testing patients who have received a bone marrow transplant.
Container/Tube:
Preferred: Lavender top (EDTA) or yellow top (ACD)
Acceptable: Any anticoagulant
Specimen Volume: 3 mL
Collection Instructions:
1. Invert several times to mix blood.
2. Send whole blood specimen in original tube. Do not aliquot.
Additional Information: To ensure minimum volume and concentration of DNA is met, the preferred volume of blood must be submitted. Testing may be canceled if DNA requirements are inadequate.
