A semi‐automated approach for early prenatal diagnosis is developed for low‐cellularity samples from coelocentesis by exploiting biotin/streptavidin interaction to functionalize electrospun mats with antibodies. With potential microfluidic integration, the resulting platform enables fetal cell capture, offering a strategy toward improved efficiency and
