4. Determination of fetal sex provides an alternative to invasive techniques for some heritable disorders. It detects influenza in minutes, offering advantages to combat the flu Gold Nanoparticles Used to Diagnose Flu in Minutes Tests That Use DNA from Mother’s Blood to Determine Sex of Fetus Often Effective
5. The availability of a reliable noninvasive alternative to determine fetal sex would reduce unintended fetal losses and would presumably be welcomed by pregnant women carrying fetuses at risk for disorders

7. using maternal blood Largest effects Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTQ-PCR) Test performance was high if performed using RTQ-PCR on a blood sample taken at a time during pregnancy when sufficient cell-free fetal DNA was present (7 weeks' gestation or later), with the best performance after 20 weeks' gestation.
