Feasibility Study of Semiconductor Sequencing for Noninvasive Prenatal Detection of Fetal Aneuploidy

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Noninvasive prenatal detection of common fetal aneuploidies with cell-free DNA from maternal plasma has been achieved with high-throughput next-generation sequencing platforms. Turnaround times for previously tested platforms are still unsatisfactory for clinical applications, however, because of the time spent on sequencing. The development of semiconductor sequencing technology has provided a way to...
