O LCG-FMUC é um grupo dinâmico, multidisciplinar, empreendedor e dedicado, constituído por técnicos e docentes da FMUC. Estando inserido na UC, o LCG encontra-se envolvido em diversos projetos de investigação de diferentes áreas.

6 available services

Array-CGH

The LCG has different array resolutions in order to identify Copy number variations (CNV) and detection of loss of heterozygosity. This diagnosis can be done on pre-natal and post-natal samples.

Developmental Disorders

LCG provides solutions in Genomics, Conventional and/or Molecular Cytogenetics and Molecular Biology for genetic studies of Developmental Disorders.

Genetical family story

These studies are carried out taking into account the alterations present in the index case, using the most appropriate techniques in the set of existing LCG techniques to characterize the alterations.

Infertility

Infertility test by Cytogentics and Molecular Biology techniques.

Methylation-specific MLPA (MS-MLPA)

MS-MLPA can be used for the analysis of both methylation as well as copy number changes of syndromic related regions.

Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification - MLPA

MLPA can be used for the analysis of copy number changes in DNA of syndromic related regions
