Panels that include this biomarker

  • Chromosome Five-cell Count Plus Microarray (Reveal®), Amniotic Fluid 511590

    3 analytes · Amniotic fluid · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 10 - 21 days

    Method and collection
    Method
    Five-cell G-Band Chromosome analysis. SNP microarray analysis is performed using the Cytoscan® HD Accel platform, which uses more than 743,130 SNP probes and 2,029,441 NPCN probes with a median spacing of 0.818 kb.
    Collection
    Discard first 2 mL of fluid aspirated to avoid maternal cell contamination. Specimen is collected in a 20 mL sterile syringe and transferred aseptically to sterile tubes to be transported to Labcorp. Test request form is completed and accompanies specimen and miscellaneous slip to the laboratory. Rubber stopper and/or frozen specimen cannot be processed.

  • Chromosome Analysis, Amniotic Fluid 052040

    4 analytes · Urine · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 9 - 12 days

    Method and collection
    Method
    In situ cell culturing of amniocytes to investigate numerical and/or structural chromosome abnormalities
    Preparation
    The patient preferably should have had ultrasound studies (to verify fetal life, detect multiple gestation, confirm gestational age, localize fetus/placenta).
    Collection
    Discard first 2 mL of fluid aspirated to avoid maternal cell contamination. Specimen is collected in a 20 mL sterile syringe and transferred aseptically to sterile tubes to be transported to Labcorp. Request form is completed and accompanies specimen and miscellaneous slip to the laboratory. Samples from twin (multiple) pregnancies should be appropriately labeled and placed in separate transport containers with a separate request form for each twin. Rubber stopper and/or frozen specimen cannot be processed.

  • Chromosome Analysis, Amniotic Fluid With Reflex to SNP Microarray (Reveal®) 052104

    4 analytes · Urine · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 7 - 11 days

    Method and collection
    Method
    In situ cell culturing of amniocytes to investigate numerical and/or structural chromosome abnormalities.

    Preparation
    The patient preferably should have had ultrasound studies (to verify fetal life, detect multiple gestation, confirm gestational age, localize placenta).
    Collection
    Discard first 2 mL of fluid aspirated to avoid maternal cell contamination. Specimen is collected in a 20 mL sterile syringe and transferred aseptically to sterile tubes to be transported to Labcorp. Test request form is completed and accompanies specimen and miscellaneous slip to the laboratory. Samples from twin (multiple) pregnancies should be appropriately labeled and placed in separate transport containers with a separate request form for each twin.

    7 analytes · Amniotic fluid · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 10 - 14 days

    Method and collection
    Method
    Chromosome analysis: in situ cell culturing of amniocytes for the investigation of numerical and/or structural chromosome abnormalities; chemiluminescent immunoassay for AFP
    Collection
    Discard first 2 mL of fluid aspirated to avoid maternal cell contamination. Specimen is collected in a 20 mL sterile syringe and transfer aseptically to sterile tubes. Remove needle from syringe after collection. The test request form is completed and accompanies specimen and miscellaneous slip to the laboratory. Samples from twin (multiple) pregnancies should be appropriately labeled and placed in separate transport containers with a separate request form for each twin. Rubber stopper and/or frozen specimen cannot be processed.

We compile this page from named laboratory catalogs, guidelines and studies. Labs calculate reference intervals from the people they test, for one assay method and one population group, so an interval describes that population rather than an optimal target.
