Prediction of Fetal Sex by Amplification of Fetal DNA Present in Cow Plasma
1 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
The aim of the present study was to predict fetal sex at different time points of gestation in cattle by detecting the fetal SRY gene in cow plasma. Plasma DNA was extracted from the blood samples of 110 pregnant cows during the gestational period of 30 to 242 days. Nested PCR was employed to detect the fetal SRY, which the male fetus carries exclusively, in cow plasma. The cows positive for SRY were predicted to...
