JS Genetics, a private company, develops and markets proprietary, low cost, high value DNA diagnostic tests for under served medical conditions in newborns and adolescents. This focus grew out of the recognition that most genetic tests require blood samples, have longer turn-around times, and are fairly expensive.
The Company's principle strategy is to internally develop tests using buccal swabs for sample collection and a PCR based testing platform and bring to market accurate, convenient and cost effective DNA screening tests for:
• Genetic Diseases in Turner Syndrome and Trisomy 21 (Down’s Syndrome),
Trisomy 13 and Trisomy 18
• Predisposition to Learning Disabilities in Dyslexia
• Behavioral Diseases and infertility in Fragile X
