The most advanced non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT)
that uses groundbreaking technologies. Through analysis of circulating cell-free fetal DNA (cfDNA) in maternal blood, it screens for genome-wide chromosomal abnormalities and severe genetic disorders in the fetus, providing unparalleled accuracy and detection compared to other NIPT.
During pregnancy placental trophoblasts, through a physiological process known as "apoptosis", releases DNA fragments in the maternal blood.
This DNA, also named circulating cell-free fetal DNA, increases with advancing of gestational age and, at the 10th week of gestation, reaches a sufficient quantity for a reliably analysis and provides valuable information on the health of the fetus.
SUITABLE TO EVERY PREGNANCY
The test is suitable for every kind of pregnancy: singleton or twin pregnancy, natural conception or IVF derived pregnancy, pregnancy at risk for an inherited genetic disorder or to any pregnancy without a specific prior risk.

COMPARISON OF THE SCREENING OPTIONS
A GROUNDBREAKING TECHNOLOGY ALLOWING FOR A SCREENING TEST THAT IS REVOLUTIONARY
A groundbreaking technology coupled with an advanced bioinformatic analysis allows for detection of both genomewide chromosomal abnormalities and single-gene disorders, providing the most comprehensive information available from a noninvasive prenatal test to date.
A groundbreaking technology coupled with an advanced bioinformatic analysis allows for detection of both genomewide chromosomal abnormalities and single-gene disorders, providing the most comprehensive information available from a noninvasive prenatal test to date.
The high resolution of the test allows for a low limit of detection (LOD):
highly accurate at low cfDNA quantity
TEST CHARACTERISTICS: SUPERIOR ACCURACY AND HIGH QUALITY STANDARDS
Simple
A simple blood sample (8-10 ml)
collected at 10^ weeks of gestation is required
Fast
Turnaround time
of just 3 days
Safe
It is a non-invasive prenatal test,
no risk for the fetus and the mother
Sensitive
Low limit of detection: highly accurate
at low cfDNA quantity (FF:1%)
RELIABLE
Sensitivity and
specificity >99%
COMPREHENSIVE
It offers a level of information previously only available from a fetal karyotype analysis, performed with invasive prenatal diagnosis procedures (amniocentesis and CVS)

TEST RESULTS
NEGATIVE
A negative result shows that there is a low risk for a chromosomal abnormality or a genetic disorder in the fetus. A low risk test result greatly reduces the chances that the fetus has a chromosomal abnormalty or monogenic disorder but it cannot guarantee a healthy baby.
POSITIVE
Positive screening result shows that there is a high risk for a chromosomal abnormality or a genetic disorder in the fetus. A patient with a positive test result should be referred for genetic counseling and should always be followed-up with an invasive diagnostic prenatal test for confirmation of test results, before any medical decisions are made.
