PGT-A with ploidy
PGT-A with ploidy
Our most advanced 2-in-1 genetic test offers increased accuracy and confidence for embryo transfer.
Overview
- To enhance the genetic testing of IVF embryos and expand the diagnostic capabilities and clinical utility of our preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A), we have developed and validated a parallel targeted Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) strategy using the power of SNP technology without the need for parental samples.
- Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are changes in single nucleotides distributed throughout the genome which frequently vary at the same genomic position between individuals. Most SNPs have only two different alleles.
- SNPs can be used to detect ploidy differences.
- This dual assessment serves as a complementary test for the detection of the chromosome abnormalities not detected with our current approach, significantly enhancing the accuracy and confidence of the PGT-A test.
What is PGT-A with ploidy?
- Building upon our expertise, our latest offering, PGT-A with ploidy detection, is a 2-in-1 genetic test which combines our extensively validated in-house Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology with an additional and validated targeted Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) strategy using the power of SNPs (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) without the need for parental samples.
- This advanced screening solution goes beyond PGT-A by incorporating additional features including ploidy analysis (complete chromosomes sets) into a standard PGT-A workflow significantly increasing accuracy and confidence in selecting the optimal embryo for transfer.

Smart PGT – A
Our custom and validated technology that combines next-generation sequencing (NGS) with advanced algorithms and machine learning, enabling the analysis of genomic data from embryos with exceptional accuracy and reliability.
Genetic PN Check | Ploidy detection
Smart PGT-A with ploidy enables the detection of both haploidy and triploidy. This crucial assessment ensures the selection of embryos with the correct chromosomal content, minimizing the risk of genetic abnormalities. Smart PGT-A with ploidy also increases the number of viable euploid embryos available for transfer by detecting true 2PN (diploid) embryos from among morphologically identified 0, 1 and 2.1/3PN embryos.
Features
What makes our Smart PGT-A with ploidy stand out from the rest?
Offers enhanced confidence with robust and accurate results, utilizing two independent analyses to detect abnormalities.
Increases the number of viable embryos available for transfer.
Strengthened by the power of big data and artificial intelligence, effectively overcoming the limitations of human subjectivity and greatly reducing the risk of human error.
Maximizes the likelihood of successful pregnancy by carefully identifying optimal embryos for transfer.
Reduces the risk of miscarriage due to previously undetected abnormalities (e.g. triploidy).
While any couple can have an embryo with aneuploidy, the chances can increase with the following factors:
-
Female age over 35
-
History of recurrent pregnancy loss
-
Previous IVF failure
-
Prior child or pregnancy with a chromosome abnormality
-
Rescue embryos following abnormal fertilization (0PN, 1PN, 2.1PN/3PN)
-
Reproductive history of triploidy/haploidy
-
Complete or partial molar pregnancy
-
Recurrent miscarriage
