TLDR
Contamination of fetal fluid samples with maternal cells was found to be a major problem which could lead to the misinterpretation of results and multiple cultures should be initiated from each sample.About:

Prenatal diagnosis of sex in bovine fetuses by amniocentesis
S.P. Leibo,W.F. Rall +1 more
TL;DR: The capability to diagnose fetal sex in utero yielded other useful information, for example, the sex ratio of 1,056 fetuses during development from 7 to 15+ wk of gestation was found to be the same as it was at calving.

Bovine ultrasound-guided transvaginal amniocentesis.
A. Garcia,M. Salaheddine +1 more
TL;DR: The results reported here suggest that the incidence of spontaneous fetal loss associated with this transvaginal amniocentesis procedure is very satisfactory and could be the method of choice for the collection of fetal fluids in embryo transfer programs.

Use of the polymerase chain reaction to sex the bovine fetus using cells recovered by ultrasound-guided fetal fluid aspiration.
K. Makondo,Georgios S. Amiridis,I.A. Jeffcoate,P.J. O'Shaughnessy,J.S. Boyd,C. Paterson,L. Robertson +6 more
TL;DR: First trimester fetal sex diagnosis using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify DNA from bovine fetal cells recovered by transvaginal ultrasound-guided uterine puncture and fetal fluid aspiration and gender determined by PCR of fetal fluid cells was confirmed.

Associations between Drugs Administered during Pregnancy and Congenital Abnormalities of the Fetus
Matilda M. Nelson,John O. Forfar +1 more
TL;DR: During pregnancy, it would appear wise to avoid the administration of any drug which carries a suspicion of teratogenicity unless that drug is specifically indicated, and self-medication with common household remedies such as aspirin and antacids should be avoided.

Role of amniocentesis in the intrauterine detection of genetic disorders.
Henry L. Nadler,Albert B. Gerbie +1 more
TL;DR: Cultivation of amniotic-fluid cells obtained by transabdominal amniocentesis early in the second trimester of pregnancy provides a method that enables parents at "high risk" for having offspring with certain serious genetic disorders to have children without risk of such a defect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prenatal diagnosis of genetic disorders.
TL;DR: Prenatal diagnosis offers a promising alternative for parents who are at risk of having a child with a genetic disease which can be detected in amniotics fluid or in cultured amniotic fluid cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
A technique for in situ karyotyping of primary amniotic fluid cell cultures.
TL;DR: Karyotyping the clones in situ eliminates most of the problems caused by somatic chromosome mutations in vitro and by maternal cell growth.

Amniotic fluid cells; prenatal sex prediction and culture.
M. M. Nelson,A. E. H. Emery +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that between the 13th and the 16th week of pregnancy is the optimum time for amniocentesis to obtain cells for culture, since sufficient cells are then present in a small volume of fluid and therapeutic abortion would still be possible once the results were available.
