Single Molecule Sequencing of Cell-free DNA from Maternal Plasma for Noninvasive Trisomy Detection
2017-10-27
Abstract excerpt
The demand of non-invasive prenatal testing for autosomal aneuploidy using cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) in maternal plasma is a highly sought-after diagnostic, with a rapidly growing market. Current approaches developed by next generation sequencing (NGS) need PCR amplifcation during sample preparation, which results in amplification bias in GC-rich areas of the human genome. With these approaches, the minimum fet...
