Gain insight into your baby's health with a genetic test
A genetic test (NIPT) is an ordinary blood sample from the mother that gives a precise assessment of the risk of certain chromosomal conditions – without any strain on mother or baby.
NIPT Standard
By LifeGenomics- Down, Edwards and Patau syndrome (trisomy 21, 18 and 13)
- Sex chromosomes (Turner, Klinefelter etc.) + sex
- Non-invasive – just a blood sample · results in 9 working days
All 23 chromosome pairsThe baby's entire genome is analysed – not only the most common abnormalities.
Evita Test Complete
By Arcedi Biotech- All chromosomes + sex chromosomes (Turner, Klinefelter, XYY)
- Microdeletions/duplications > 1 Mb – incl. Prader-Willi & Angelman
- Reviewed by a clinical geneticist · sex incl. · results in approx. 12 working days
- Early scan included in the price

What is the difference between "92 known syndromes" and "whole genome"?
NIPT Pro looks for a fixed list of 92 named, known syndromes (e.g. DiGeorge, Prader-Willi and Angelman). If there is an abnormality somewhere not on the list, it is not detected.
Evita Test Complete scans the entire genome and finds all deletions and duplications larger than 1 Mb (1 million base pairs) – including those outside a fixed list. In return, the result is always reviewed by a clinical geneticist.
In short: NIPT Pro gives you a broad, fixed list of known syndromes. Evita gives you an open search across the whole genome.
* NIPT is also available for twins (separate twin analysis) – sex chromosomes are not included in the twin panel. Call us if you are expecting two. Evita Test Complete is offered for singleton pregnancies.
