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.
