The discovery of fetal DNA in maternal plasma has opened up new possibilities for noninvasive prenatal diagnosis (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6). A recent report(7) indicated that the proportion of fetal DNA in maternal plasma can be dramatically enriched through the adoption of a blood-processing protocol involving the addition of formaldehyde to maternal blood samples.
