Amniocentesis is something that many pregnant women need to do during pregnancy. It is a very routine examination method. In this way, you can know very intuitively whether the fetus in your belly is developing healthily. However, you must be careful after completing this examination. You cannot have sex, and you must also pay attention to the occurrence of colds and fevers to prevent your body from experiencing some side effects. 2. Before puncturing the amniotic fluid, the pregnant woman can lie in bed and turn over five times in a row to suspend the fetal cells in the amniotic fluid in the uterus, making it easier to puncture and extract more fetal cells. 3. Use the puncture kit to disinfect the puncture site according to aseptic requirements, spread the hole towel, puncture with the puncture needle, slowly extract 10-20 ml of amniotic fluid, slowly inject it into the sterile centrifuge tube along the tube wall, and seal it with a sterile seal; 4. Centrifuge conventionally, open the seal under sterile conditions, discard the supernatant, keep about 1 ml of amniotic fluid and mix the cell sediment into a cell suspension for genetic testing or cell culture; 5. Pour 1 ml of the cell suspension used for genetic testing into the prepared 1.5 ml sterile sealed plastic centrifuge bottle; seal it together with the detailed test records of the pregnant woman, put it in an ice pack and send it to the testing unit (or send it by express mail). The testing unit will keep the file after receiving it and perform genetic testing (chargeable item). 6. For cell culture, evenly distribute the suspension into the prepared culture bottles, seal them aseptically and place them in a CO2 incubator for culture. Observe the growth with an inverted microscope every few days and replace part of the culture medium as needed. After culturing for 15-20 days, when the cells cover the wall of the bottle, harvest the cells for chromosome analysis. Life Details 1.
