PCR characterization of genes for coumarin metabolism

AID coumarin panel PCR kit – detection of major polymorphisms for coumarin metabolism

Characterization of the major polymorphisms in CYP2C9, CYP4F2 and VKORC1 genes

Coumarins are one of the most important pharmaceuticals which are used very often as anti coagulant.

Drug level in patient is not only dependent on doses but also on phenotype of different detoxication enzymes, which are involved in coumarin metabolism. Determination of these phenotypes can help to select suited drug modifications and to avoid drug overdose.

AID Cumarin Panel enables determination of the polymorphisms:
p. R144C and p. I359L of CYP2C9 gene,
p. V433M of CYP4F2 gene
and c. C1173T of VKORC1 gene
