Genetic Screening Genetic Screening By: Mullanium GLIDES 2010 By: Mullanium GLIDES 2010

What is Genetic Screening? ► Genetic screening is the study of the formation of DNA. This form of engineering helps to detect inherited diseases, such as sickle-cell disease, hemophilia, and more.

History In 1665, the cell was found inside plants and animal tissue. The nucleus of cells were seen as the building blocks of life. In 1902, the discovery of chromosomes having a connection to diseases was discovered. In 1665, the cell was found inside plants and animal tissue. The nucleus of cells were seen as the building blocks of life. In 1902, the discovery of chromosomes having a connection to diseases was discovered.

ProsPros ► There are many benefits to genetic screening. It can help with diagnosing diseases that the patient may not even be aware about. It assists mothers before they give birth to diagnose a condition of her child. It can also help diagnose diseases for older people, such as sickle-cell disease, hemophilia, and others.

ConsCons ► If an insurance company discovers that you have a rare disease, it is less likely that they will pay for the treatment. This makes the patient pay more expenses.

How is it Used Today? ► Newborn screening is used just after birth to identify genetic disorders that can be treated early in life. ► Parental testing used to detect changes in fetus genes or chromosomes before birth. ► Predictive and presymptomatic types of testing are used to detect gene mutations associated with disorders that appear after birth of later on in life. ► Forensic testing uses DNA sequences to identify an individual for legal purposes. ► Pharmacogenomics type of genetic testing that determines the influence of genetic varition on drugs. ► Pharmacogenomics type of genetic testing that determines the influence of genetic varition on drugs.

How Will it be Used in the Future? ► A device called DNA chip is currently being manufactured. This one-and-a-quarter by one-and-a-quarter millimeter device could be used to scan multiple of genes simultaneously. This DNA chip can help scientists discover much more about the human gene.

IssuesIssues ► People and scientists continue to wonder if genetic screening should be used for a common disease. ► When a patient is found to have a specific disease, they could be denied job opportunities and insurance benefits.

CostsCosts ► Genetic screening tests can range in price, anywhere from $100 to over $2000. If more than one test is necessary, the the price will increase.

Our Opinion ► We believe that genetic screening is useful for our society. It helps keep our citizens safe from contagious diseases and helps us discover more about the human gene. Also, it assists with diagnosing possibly fatal conditions.
