Abstract:
:If the parents do not want to take the 50% chance that a male fetus will be involved with an x-linked disease, it is desirable to predict fetal sex early enough to safely terminate pregnancy. Slides obtained from midcervical smears of 20 consecutive patients at different stages of gestation were stained with .5% aqueous solution of quinacrine hydrochloride then dipped 3 times in a buffer with pH of 5.5 and mounted wet. On each slide 100 cells were studied with fluorescent light. In none was the characteristic fluorescent y-body seen. As there was no follow-up, an additional 18 patients were similarly studied. 7 delivered male infants in spite of the absence of a y-body on cervical smears. It is concluded that this technique is not satisfactory for prenatal sex determination.
