Japanese venture · TL Genomics developed application technology for prenatal testing.
Separate and analyze fetal cells contained in trace amounts in maternal blood.
Multilayered resin substrates with fine grooves
Injecting blood into the microfluidic chip
Sort and analyze fetal cells based on the size of the cells
Since it examine the cell itself, it is more accurate than the existing testing method for examining DNA fragments and many diseases that can be examined.
