Ensure Your Prenatal Test Results Are Truly Accurate
When you’re expecting, every test result matters deeply. Maternal cell contamination can silently compromise the accuracy of your prenatal diagnosis, potentially leading to unnecessary stress or missed concerns. At Oracle Genomics, we understand the emotional weight of prenatal testing and provide the clarity you need to make confident decisions about your pregnancy journey.
What Is Maternal Cell Contamination Testing?
Maternal cell contamination occurs when maternal cells accidentally mix with fetal cells during sample collection of amniotic fluid, cord blood, or chorionic villi. This contamination can lead to misleading test results that don’t accurately represent your baby’s genetic makeup. Our advanced PCR testing method specifically detects and identifies these maternal cells, ensuring your prenatal diagnosis reflects only your baby’s genetic information.
Think of it as a quality control check for your most important prenatal tests – giving you the confidence that your results are pure, accurate, and reliable.
Who Should Consider This Essential Test?
This test is particularly important for:
- Expectant mothers undergoing amniocentesis or CVS testing
- Parents with family history of genetic conditions
- Women with advanced maternal age (35+)
- Couples with previous pregnancy complications
- Anyone seeking the highest level of accuracy in prenatal diagnosis
If you’re investing in prenatal genetic testing, this contamination check ensures your investment delivers truly reliable information.
Why This Test Matters for Your Peace of Mind
Choosing maternal cell contamination testing means:
- Avoid Misdiagnosis: Prevent false positive or negative results that could lead to unnecessary interventions or missed conditions
- Confident Decision-Making: Make pregnancy care decisions based on accurate, reliable genetic information
- Reduced Anxiety: Eliminate the worry that your test results might be compromised
- Early Detection: Identify contamination before it affects your primary prenatal diagnosis
- Comprehensive Care: Ensure every aspect of your prenatal testing meets the highest quality standards
Understanding Your Test Results
Your results will clearly indicate whether maternal cell contamination was detected in your sample:
- Negative Result: No maternal cells detected – your prenatal test results are pure and reliable
- Positive Result: Maternal cells present – your healthcare provider can take appropriate steps to ensure accurate diagnosis
Our genetic counselors are available to help you understand your results and discuss next steps with your obstetrician. We believe knowledge should bring peace, not panic.
