Prenental diagnostics T21 samples showed significant changes, with similarities to the protein profile of normal first trimester pregnancies. Two protein peak masses in the ranges 5-10kDa (p=0 .028) and 20-25kDa (p=0 .004) were more than 2 fold different. The 2D DiGE first trimester study revealed two spots in the 5 .3-6 .5 pH range, increased by 1 .4 fold (p=0 .019) and 1 .2 fold (p=0 .017) . Analysis of second trimester samples showed two further significant spots in the 5.3-6.5 pH range and two in the 6-9 pH range (p
