The IONA® Nx NIPT Workflow (IONA® Nx) is Yourgene Health’s non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT) that runs on the Illumina NGS platform.
A fully validated workflow that utilises next generation sequencing (NGS) and has been developed to run on Illumina’s NextSeq 550Dx instrument.
IONA® Nx, is a screening test that performs:
- Whole genome analysis to measure the likelihood that a pregnant woman is carrying a fetus with:
Most common trisomies
Trisomy 21 (Down’ Syndrome)
Trisomy 18 (Edwards’ Syndrome)
Trisomy 13 (Patau’s Syndrome)
Autosomal Aneuploidies (AAs)
Additional trisomy across the whole-genome
All monosomy across the whole-genome
Sex Chromosome Aneuploidies (SCAs)
45,X (Turner Syndrome)
47,XXX (Trisomy X)
47,XXY (Klinefelter’s Syndrome)
47,XYY (Jacob’s Syndrome)
- Fetal Sex Determination
