[Non-invasive fetal trisomy (NIFTY) test in prenatal diagnosis].
NIFTY (Non-invasive Fetal Trisomy Test) is a non-invasive prenatal test which is used for diagnosing fetal trisomy. The test is based on the analysis of cell free fetal DNA (cffDNA) present in the plasma and serum of a pregnant woman. NIFTY allows to detect fetal trisomy of chromosomes 13, 18, 21, X and Y and also X monosomy. Abnormal NIFTY results still need to be verified using other diagnost...
متن کاملNon-invasive prenatal diagnosis of fetal trisomy 21 using cell-free fetal DNA in maternal blood
Since the existence of cell-free fetal DNA (cff-DNA) in maternal circulation was discovered, it has been identified as a promising source of fetal genetic material in the development of reliable methods for non-invasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) of fetal trisomy 21 (T21). Currently, a prenatal diagnosis of fetal T21 is achieved through invasive techniques, such as chorionic villus sampling or a...

متن کاملCell-free fetal DNA and non-invasive prenatal diagnosis.
Currently in the UK, prenatal diagnosis of genetic conditions and Down’s syndrome requires invasive diagnostic tests such as amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS). Procedural related miscarriage rates of about 1% have been quoted for these tests which are not usually done before 11 weeks’ gestation. Annually in the UK, 32 000 women have an invasive diagnostic test as a result of oth...
