Mr. Wang et al., SIMULTANEOUS IN-SITU HYBRIDIZATION WITH BIOTIN-LABELED CENTROMERIC AND LIBRARY DNA PROBES - A USEFUL METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING TRANSLOCATIONS, Analytical cellular pathology, 8(1), 1995, pp. 53-56
A method of in situ hybridization is described for rapid characterizat
ion of cytogenetical translocations. In the same experimental procedur
e, biotinylated centromeric and 'painting' DNA probes were used in com
bination, Signals of the double-target hybridization were visualized b
y only one fluorescein, This technique also permits a simultaneous det
ection of multiple unrelated aberrations involving several chromosomes
