MaterniT21™ PLUS Test for Fetal Aneuploidies

Click here to learn more about the MaterniT21 PLUS laboratory- developed test (LDT) for fetal aneuploidies. Developed and validated by Sequenom CMM, the test analyzes the relative amount of 21, 18, 13, X and Y chromosomal material in circulating cell-free DNA from a maternal blood sample. The test detects fetal aneuploidies for chromosomes 21, 18, 13 in singletons, twins and higher order multiple pregnancies.1,2,3 The MaterniT21 PLUS test also makes a determination for chromosomes X and Y.4 Sex chromosomal aneuploidies are not reported in multiple pregnancies.

SensiGene® Fetal RHD Genotyping Test

Click here to learn more about SensiGene® Fetal RHD Genotyping test, a noninvasive LDT that can directly determine fetal RHD status. In RhD negative sensitized patients it may avoid invasive testing by CVS or genetic amniocentesis.

RetnaGene™ AMD Test for Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Click here to learn more about RetnaGene™ AMD, a genetic test that evaluates patients with early or intermediate AMD progressing to advanced choroidal neovascular disease within 2, 5, and 10 years. This test will help physicians tailor the management of their patients and your members. This could potentially lead to improved detection of wet AMD at an earlier stage, before much vision loss has occurred.
