Note: All samples should be forwarded to LabPlus at room temperature within 24hours.

Note: If an analysis of the H63D and S65C HFE mutations is required, and the patient has already been analysed for the C282Y HFE mutation by this lab, we may already have a suitable specimen for testing. This may mean that it is not necessary to take a new blood sample for this test. Please call the lab and discuss this with a scientist.
