In addition to detecting trisomies of whole chromosomes, QF-PCR can also detect partial trisomies of the chromosomes 13, 18, and 21, which can suggest an unbalanced translocation. Additional testing with other techniques, such as microarray or FISH, is recommended when an unbalanced translocation is suspected.
除了检测整条染色体的三体性外,QF-PCR还可以检测13号、18号和21号染色体的部分三体性,这可能提示存在不平衡易位。当怀疑存在不平衡易位时,建议采用其他技术(如微阵列或荧光原位杂交)进行进一步检测。
