Abstract: | ![]() A method for high quality chromosome banding after in situ hybridization with biotinylated probes has been developed. Fluoresceine-conjugated avidin is used for probe detection, while chromosome banding is performed with a tetramethylrodhamine-conjugated anti-BrdU antibody. In this way probe localization and chromosome identification can be performed simultaneously simply by changing the incidental light wavelength.Abbreviations BAT BrdU antibody technique - DABCO 1,4 diazobicyclo-(2.2.2)octane - FITC fluorescein isothiocyanate - FPG fluorochrome plus giemsa - PHA phytohemagglutinin - RBA R-banding BrdU acridine - TRITC tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate |
