Abstract
A fast method for identifying several chromosomes with chromosome-spec ific oligonucleotide primers directing an in situ labeling reaction is described. Up to three reactions distinguished by different fluorochr omes (fluorescein isothiocyanate, rhodamine/Texas red, p-amino-methyl- cyclohexane carboxylic acid) can currently be performed. Prospects for increasing this up to seven colors, and for the future of the process in prenatal diagnosis are discussed.
