Show Notes
Non-invasive prenatal testing based on cell-free DNA is now a widely used technique. However, quality control materials that have properties identical to clinical samples and that are applicable to a wide range of procedures are not available to support assay development, internal or external quality control, and proficiency testing. The June 2019 issue of Clinical Chemistry includes a study describing the development of such quality control materials that comprise simulated human plasma and mixtures of mother cell line derived cell-free DNA based on DNA fragmentation factor digestion.
