متن کاملPrenatal maternal plasma DNA screening for cystic fibrosis: A
Prenatal cystic fibrosis (CF) screening is currently based on Background: determining the carrier status of both parents. We propose a new method based only on the analysis of DNA in maternal plasma. The method relies on the quantitative amplification of the CF gene to Methods: determine the percentage of DNA fragments in maternal plasma at targeted CF mutation sites that carry a CF mutation. C...
