Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To use the PCR-RFLP-based linkage analysis for non-invasive prenatal diagnosis of β-thalassemia. BACKGROUNDS: Thalassemia is a prevalent genetic disorder occurring throughout the world. Cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) in the maternal plasma during pregnancy has been used to develop non-invasive prenatal screening and diagnostic tests. METHODS: PCR-RFLP for six SNPs in the β-globin gene was executed on...
