Abstract

Before noninvasive prenatal diagnosis on the fetal Rhesus D status (NIPD RhD) can be implemented on a mass-scale, it is crucial to define requirements regarding sample transport. The aim of this study was to determine the relation between the transport time of samples for NIPD and the concentration of fetal DNA in maternal plasma.
