With this event, GENTIS officially became the first unit in Vietnam to be internationally recognized by CAP for both PGT and NIPT genetic tests, affirming its pioneering position and exceptional expertise in the field of genetic testing.
The ceremony was attended by Mr. Tran Van Khoi, Director of the Laboratory Quality Assurance Science Joint Stock Company (LAQAS), the official representative and distributor of CAP in Vietnam. Representatives from GENTIS included Mr. Đỗ Mạnh Hà, CEO, along with members of the leadership team and experienced specialists.
GENTIS held the solemn ceremony to receive the CAP Certification for PGT and NIPT tests, marking an important milestone confirming international standards.
CAP Certification – A Global Benchmark
CAP is a prestigious global certification issued by the American Society for Pathology, a world leader in laboratory quality control. To achieve this certification, institutions must meet over 800 strict evaluation criteria, including technical infrastructure, quality control systems, analysis processes, and professional team competence.
This is the first time that a genetic institution in Vietnam has been awarded CAP certification for PGT and NIPT – two techniques that require extremely high precision, advanced technology, and strict process compliance. Achieving CAP certification for both tests confirms that GENTIS's laboratory system meets international standards in equipment, operational procedures, and professional competence.
Mr. Tran Van Khoi, Director of LAQAS, presented flowers and the CAP certificate to Mr. Phạm Đình Minh, Director of the CAP GENTIS Laboratory.
This milestone firmly establishes GENTIS’s professional competence and test quality, matching the standards of leading laboratories worldwide.
GENTIS – A Leader in Genetic Testing for Reproductive Health
The CAP certification ceremony was attended by Mr. Trần Văn Khôi, Director of LAQAS, the official representative and distributor of CAP in Vietnam, Mr. Đỗ Mạnh Hà, CEO of GENTIS, and members of the leadership team and genetic experts from the company.
In his speech, Mr. Tran Van Khoi praised GENTIS’s efforts in investing in technology and quality systems: “GENTIS’s CAP certification demonstrates the company’s serious investment in improving testing quality management. This not only proves GENTIS’s high professional competence in test results but also shows their efforts and commitment to quality management to deliver highly accurate, reliable results to patients and doctors.”
Mr. Do Manh Ha(CEO of GENTIS) shared about the journey of taking GENTIS from its pioneering beginnings to an internationally accredited laboratory.
Mr. Do Manh Ha, CEO of GENTIS, emphasized: “Achieving CAP certification is the result of many years of persistence in building an internationally recognized system. We are committed to continuing to accompany our customers and partners in the healthcare journey with high-quality, accurate, safe, and humane genetic services.”
Meeting the Growing Demand in Reproductive Health Care
With the trend towards personalized medicine and the increasing demand for prenatal screening, diagnosis, and reproductive support, the implementation of internationally certified PGT and NIPT services in Vietnam is highly meaningful:
-
PGT assists in genetic screening of embryos during the in vitro fertilization (IVF) process, helping to select healthy embryos, increase the success rate, and reduce the risk of genetic diseases.
-
NIPT helps detect chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus as early as the 10th week of pregnancy, using only a blood sample from the mother, with no invasiveness, high safety, and accuracy.
PGT and NIPT are two tests that require advanced technology, specialized knowledge, and strict quality control processes – factors that GENTIS has developed and perfected over the years. The achievement of CAP certification for these two important genetic tests is a significant event, marking a major step forward in standardizing and elevating the quality of genetic testing services in Vietnam to international standards.
Commitment to Sustainable Development and Expanding International Collaboration
During the ceremony, Mr. Do Manh Ha, CEO of GENTIS, affirmed:
“Receiving the CAP certification is an important milestone not only for GENTIS but also for the genetic testing industry in Vietnam. We are committed to continuing to invest in technology, enhance our team’s expertise, and constantly improve processes to provide accurate, safe, and humane testing services to the community.”
GENTIS is currently one of the pioneers in the field of genetic testing in Vietnam, with 15 years of development, serving millions of customers with laboratories certified to international standards including CAP, ISO 15189:2022, ISO 27001:2022, and ISO 9001:2015. The CAP certification demonstrates the strong development potential and international integration capacity of Vietnam’s biomedical industry.
