NGS Technology in NIPT Testing: How Fetal DNA is Analyzed
NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) Technology
The human genome contains 3.2 billion letters. The Human Genome Project took 13 years and cost $3 billion. Today, with NGS, this is done in days.
How NGS Works in NIPT
- DNA isolation: Separating fetal DNA from maternal plasma.
- Library preparation: Adding molecular barcodes to each DNA fragment.
- Sequencing: Reading millions of fragments simultaneously.
- Bioinformatics: Counting chromosomes and identifying abnormalities.
