Basenji Pack: Progressive Retinal Atrophy (Bas-PRA1), Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency (PK), Fanconi Syndrome
133,98 € VAT incl.
Panel genético del Basenji que agrupa tres condiciones hereditarias recesivas clásicas de la raza: la atrofia progresiva de retina Bas-PRA1 (forma de PRA de inicio adulto por SAG), la deficiencia de piruvato quinasa (PK, anemia hemolítica crónica por defecto de la glucólisis del eritrocito) y el síndrome de Fanconi (disfunción tubular renal proximal con glucosuria, aminoaciduria y acidosis metabólica). Las tres tienen base molecular bien caracterizada y prueba genética específica.
Diseases included in this pack
Bas-PRA1 (Autosomal recessive (OMIA:001876-9615))
A form of progressive retinal atrophy specific to the Basenji, known as Bas-PRA1. It causes progressive degeneration of photoreceptors with gradual vision loss, first at night and then during the day. It is incurable and does not cause pain, but progresses to blindness.
Fanconi Syndrome (Autosomal recessive (OMIA:002683-9615).)
Molecular test for Basenji Fanconi syndrome, a hereditary renal tubulopathy that alters proximal tubular reabsorption of glucose, amino acids and other solutes. It affects the renal/urinary system and causes polyuria-polydipsia, glucosuria with normoglycemia and, in advanced stages, renal failure. The test reports c…
PK Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency in Dogs (Autosomal recessive (OMIA:000844-9615).)
Molecular test for pyruvate kinase deficiency (PK Def), an autosomal recessive hereditary erythroenzymopathy caused by PK deficiency in the erythrocyte. Red blood cell half-life is shortened and it produces chronic regenerative hemolytic anemia, intermittent weakness, hepatosplenomegaly in the first year and, in adv…
Frequently asked questions
What does this pack include?
It includes 3 hereditary disease tests: Bas-PRA1, Fanconi Syndrome, PK Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency in Dogs. All are analysed in our laboratory.
What do the results mean?
The report shows the genotype and inheritance pattern of each variant. It is a breeding-decision tool: it guides which crosses to avoid, it does not guarantee the absence of disease.
How is the sample taken?
Buccal swab or 0.5–1 ml EDTA blood. The kit ships free to Spain, the EU and the UK.
