Description
Mitochondrial 4977 deletion mutant (mt4977del)
This test measures whether any sections of mtDNA have been damaged and how many. Sections of missing DNA is called a deletion, and a well-researched marker for oxidative stress is the 4977 deletion.
This test uses the number of copies of this 4977 deletion to assess how extensive the oxidative stress is. The damage is reversible – once impaired mitochondria have been removed, new healthy mitochondria can replace them
The test is carried out in Germany by Magdeburg Molecular Diagnostics (MMD). The shipping/courier cost of £50 (added at checkout) includes the DHL Medical Express packaging and paperwork for customs.
