Usually, doctors can use sophisticated new molecular tests to establish if a male fetus is affected.

These molecular diagnostic tests can give doctors more detailed information than ever about their patients.

Since pytoplasmas are not culturable, a molecular test can be done to confirm its presence.

Many of the new molecular tests are quick but technically demanding, and each laboratory may do them in its own way.

Waiting to see if the bacteria grow can take weeks, but the quick molecular test can be wrong.

It is a molecular test that, until recently, was confined to molecular biology laboratories.

And the molecular tests we acquired with GeneOhm that get answers in two hours can cost $20 to $25.

Prenatal diagnosis is possible using either biochemical or molecular tests.

The molecular tests can show tumour levels starting to rise, very early, possibly months before symptoms recur.

That's why we need a new generation of molecular tests to detect underlying genetic differences.
