GeneSafe™
What is GeneSafe™?
GeneSafe™ is the first non-invasive prenatal test that screens the fetus for both de novo and inherited single-gene disorders. From the 10th week of pregnancy, a sample safely taken from the mother's blood is used to screen the fetus for many inherited single-gene disorders. GeneSafe is a screening test; a positive result must be confirmed by CVS or amniocentesis, and a negative result does not rule out the condition. Genetic counseling is advised.
Among the current PrenatalSafe non-invasive prenatal tests (NIPT), only PrenatalSafe Complete Plus and Full risk include GeneSafe Complete
