Genetic testing for infection susceptibility examines an individual's DNA to determine whether they have genetic variants that increase their susceptibility to certain infections. This type of testing is typically done through sequencing the DNA isolated from bloodor saliva sampleFor example. ACE2 is the receptor that the SARS-CoV-2 virus uses to enter in host cells. People who have genetic variants that lead to increased ACE2 expression or activity, which may increase their risk of becoming infected with the virus. BioAro offers these tests at low cost and healthcare professional or counselor will help you to interpret the results and understand their implications.
