Y chromosome detection by Real Time PCR and pyrophosphorolysis‐activated polymerisation using free fetal DNA isolated from maternal plasma
29 Jun 2007
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To validate the use of Real Time PCR, a widely used technique that can detect very low levels of Y chromosomal sequence, and to assess the use of a highly sensitive PCR technique, pyrophosphorolysis-activated polymerisation (PAP), for fetal sex determination using free fetal DNA (ffDNA). METHODS: The fetal sex was determined by Real Time PCR in 58 pregnancies using ffDNA isolated from maternal plasma....
