What is Karyotyping (Blood)?
Karyotyping is the classic chromosome test: a blood sample's cells are cultured and the chromosomes examined under a microscope for the correct count (46) and structure. It's used to confirm chromosomal conditions like Down syndrome, investigate unexplained infertility or recurrent miscarriage in a couple, or check for chromosomal rearrangements. Takes longer than most tests since it requires growing living cells in culture first.
Why is Karyotyping (Blood) done?
- Examines the number and overall structure of all 46 chromosomes under the microscope (G-banding).
- Detects conditions caused by extra, missing or rearranged chromosomes — such as Down syndrome, Turner syndrome and Klinefelter syndrome.
- Identifies balanced chromosome rearrangements in couples with repeated miscarriages.
Who may be advised to take Karyotyping (Blood)?
- Couples with recurrent miscarriages or unexplained infertility.
- People with delayed puberty, primary amenorrhoea, or suspected Turner or Klinefelter syndrome.
- Children with features of a chromosomal condition, and parents of a child with a chromosome rearrangement.

- It needs living blood cells, so the sample must reach the lab promptly after collection.
