PROCESSES AND COMPOSITIONS FOR METHYLATION-BASED ENRICHMENT OF FETAL NUCLEIC ACID FROM A MATERNAL SAMPLE USEFUL FOR NON-INVASIVE PRENATAL DIAGNOSES

Provided are compositions and processes that utilize genomic regions that are differentially methylated between a mother and her fetus to separate, isolate or enrich fetal nucleic acid from a maternal sample. The compositions and processes described herein are particularly useful for non-invasive prenatal diagnostics, including the detection of chromosomal aneuploidies.
