Please note that we charge an extra fee for prenatal analysis.
Prenatal Testing Is Given the Highest Priority at CENTOGENE
Learn more about our prenatal genetic testing options, which enable rapid and reliable identification of disease-causing mutations, even at the early stages of pregnancy.
Prenatal Testing and Diagnosis
Chooising the appropriate testing strategy is crucial in providing the best care for your patients.
This is why CENTOGENE offers a turnaround time of ten business days for most prenatal analyses (known variants, deletion/duplication analysis, single gene sequencing) and of less than 15 business days for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) analyses (CentoXome®, CentoGenome® and CentoArray®). In addition, our medical experts are always available for your support before, during, and after the analysis.
Starting Material
- Chorionic villi
- Amniotic fluid
- Fetal DNA
- Cord blood (for late pregnancies) as possible material
You have the option to send us tubes with already cultivated cells. Alternatively, we offer CentoCulture®, our cell cultivation service.
Contact Us
Please always contact us prior to every prenatal sample sending to prevent transport delays and to allow us to give the analysis top priority. Please provide the following mandatory information :

Mendelian Disease Gene Identification and Diagnostics Using Targeted Next Generation Sequencing
During the last few months we have observed for the first time since the introduction of the first massive parallel sequencers in 2007, that the cost of sequencing a human genome has not changed […]
Validation of a Semiconductor Next-Generation Sequencing Assay for the Clinical Genetic Screening of CFTR
Genetic testing for cystic fibrosis and CFTR-related disorders mostly relies on laborious molecular tools that use Sanger sequencing to scan for mutations in the CFTR gene. We have explored a more […]
Next-Generation Sequencing of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 Genes for the Diagnostics of Breast and/or Ovarian Cancer
We explored a more efficient genetic screening strategy based on next-generation sequencing of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes in 210 hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer patients.
