: Quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) is a rapid and reliable method for screening aneuploidies, but in Brazil, it is not used in public services. We investigated the accuracy of QF-PCR for the prenatal recognition of common aneuploidies and compared these results with cytogenetic results in our laboratory.
: A ChromoQuant QF-PCR kit containing 24 primer pairs targeting loci on chromosomes 21, 13, 18, X and Y was employed to identify aneuploidies of the referred chromosomes.
: A total of 162 amniotic fluid samples analyzed using multiplex QF-PCR were compared with karyotyping analysis. The QF-PCR results were consistent with the results of cytogenetic analysis in 95.4% of all samples.
: QF-PCR was demonstrated to be efficient and reliable for prenatal aneuploidy screening. This study suggests that QF-PCR can be used as a rapid diagnostic method. However, rearrangements and some mosaic samples cannot be detected with this test; thus, those exceptions must undergo cytogenetic analysis.
定量荧光聚合酶链反应(QF-PCR)是一种快速且可靠的非整倍体筛查方法,但在巴西,公共服务领域未使用该方法。我们研究了QF-PCR在产前识别常见非整倍体方面的准确性,并将这些结果与我们实验室的细胞遗传学结果进行比较。
使用包含24对靶向21号、13号、18号、X和Y染色体上基因座的引物对的ChromoQuant QF-PCR试剂盒来识别上述染色体的非整倍体。
将使用多重QF-PCR分析的162份羊水样本与核型分析进行比较。在所有样本中,QF-PCR结果与细胞遗传学分析结果的一致性为95.4%。
QF-PCR被证明在产前非整倍体筛查中有效且可靠。本研究表明QF-PCR可作为一种快速诊断方法。然而,该检测无法检测重排和一些嵌合样本;因此,这些例外情况必须进行细胞遗传学分析。
