At. Natarajan et al., MECHANISMS OF INDUCTION OF CHROMOSOMAL-ABERRATIONS AND THEIR DETECTION BY FLUORESCENCE IN-SITU HYBRIDIZATION, Mutation research, 372(2), 1996, pp. 247-258
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique using chromosome s
pecific probes has revolutionized the field of radiation cytogenetics
in the last few years. Some of the new insights on the origins of radi
ation induced chromosome aberrations in human, mouse and Chinese hamst
er, using FISH are reviewed in this paper.
