J. Gosden et D. Lawson, INSTANT PRINS - A RAPID METHOD FOR CHROMOSOME IDENTIFICATION BY DETECTING REPEATED SEQUENCES IN-SITU, Cytogenetics and cell genetics, 68(1-2), 1995, pp. 57-60
We describe a method for labeling specific chromosomes in situ by olig
onucleotide-primed synthesis and incorporation of fluorochrome-labeled
dUTP, together with an accelerated protocol for the reaction. The com
bination of the cases taking less than 5 min for the complete process.
The significance of this development for clinical diagnosis is discus
sed.
