What is C Banding?

C Banding is a chromosome analysis (karyotype). Cells from a blood sample are grown, and the number and structure of all 46 chromosomes are examined under the microscope to find extra, missing or rearranged chromosomes.

Why is C Banding done?

  • Detects conditions caused by extra, missing or rearranged chromosomes, such as Down, Turner and Klinefelter syndromes.
  • Identifies balanced chromosome rearrangements in couples with repeated miscarriages or infertility.

Who may be advised to take C Banding?

  • Couples with recurrent miscarriage or unexplained infertility.
  • People with delayed puberty or suspected sex-chromosome conditions; children with features of a chromosomal condition.
