DNA Diagnostics Center Peekaboo Click Test
DNA Diagnostics Center (DCC), a member of the Eurofins network of companies, has launched Peekaboo Click, a prenatal blood test to determine the sex of a fetus. The new test uses an at-home collection device to obtain capillary blood from a pregnant woman's arm as early as six weeks into pregnancy. Customers send the sample to DDC's laboratory, where it is analyzed using PCR technology to detect the presence of Y chromosomal DNA in cell-free fetal DNA isolated from the sample.
