Our molecular genetics laboratory provides comprehensive services in all types of  molecular pathology including congenital disorders, prenatal diagnosis, and hematologic/ oncologic disorders.

Equipped with highly skilled and experienced doctors and technologists, the laboratory offers a very broad portfolio of genetic tests, ranging from the most prevalent disease pathology to the least common.

Dr. Ahmed Ihab, the molecular laboratory director has strong expertise in Oncology and Pharmacogenomics, complementing clinical diagnosis and monitoring of patients.

The Cytogenetics/Cytogenomics Laboratory,  at Genetic Diagnostic Center, is a full-service facility providing chromosome, FISH and microarray analysis of prenatal, somatic and cancer specimens, including: peripheral blood, bone marrow, amniotic fluid, chorionic villi, tissues (products of conception,  biopsies, etc.) and solid tumors.

The cytogenetics laboratory is under the direction of Dr. Amany Hosny, MD,  Certified Cytogeneticist.

Sequencing is the determination of the exact order of the base pairs in a segment of DNA. Genetic Diagnostic Center chose Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology as it simultaneously sequences millions of DNA fragments for a fast an most comprehensive screening of your genes and genome. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is one of the most advanced genetic analysis technologies available today.

Using an automated closed high throughput robotic system during the whole process, manual errors are avoided and consistency in the results ensured. Full traceability is guaranteed throughout the entire procedure.

Our Hematopathology Laboratory is one of the well reputed highly specialized laboratory in the country offering highly integrated subspecialized pathology diagnostic services related to hematological disorders.

Guided by the vision and leadership of Dr. Mohamed Tarif, MD, the laboratory offers an unsurpassed level of expertise, state-of-the-art scientific analysis, and personal attention. Besides our in-house sample processing and reporting, our team receive samples from all over Egypt for difficult cases and reconsultation services.

The Clinical Flow Cytometry Laboratory is an integral part of Prof. Tarif Hamza Laboratories and Genetic Diagnostic Center. Combining the expertise od Dr. Mohamed Tarif and the most advanced flow cytometer “BDFACS CANTO 10”, the  laboratory provides Egypt’s most comprehensive range of immunophenotyping services as well as expert hematopathology consultation. Routinely available surface marker panels include: leukemia and lymphoma phenotyping on peripheral blood, bone marrow, fresh tissue, or other body fluid specimens; and lymphocyte subset analyses of peripheral blood in acquired or inherited (primary) immunodeficiencies; platelet function studies, red cell membrane structure and transplant recipients.

The Biochemical Genetics Laboratory at Genetic Diagnostic Center is an interdisciplinary group of laboratory staff members, geneticists and physicians with a mission to provide biochemical testing and result interpretation of the highest quality for the diagnosis, study and clinical care of patients with inborn errors of metabolism, malabsorption and malnutrition disorders. Laboratory staff routinely performs qualitative detection and quantitative determination of diagnostic markers based on a variety of manual, automated and chromatographic methods including high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GCMS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS).
