Spectral chromosome karyotyping experiments
Throughout the history of clinical cytogenetics, G-banding has served as the "gold standard" for detecting total chromosomal abnormalities in clinical samples,

Liposomal vectors for direct in vivo gene transfection experiments
Many of the cationic liposomes used for liposomal transfection of cells in tissue cultures are able to be purchased. Composition optimization is highly dependen

Fluorescent genotyping screening for tiny subtelomeric rearrangement assay
Our results strongly support the notion that microtelomeric rearrangements play a very important role in spontaneous mental retardation (approximately 12% in ou
Experimental molecular detection of uniparental diploids
Uniparental diploid (UPD) cells can have a normal cytogenetic karyotype but an imbalance in parental contributions. The diagnosis of uniparental diploidy involv
Experimental application of fluorescence in situ hybridization in the preimplantation diagnosis of aneuploidy
Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD), as a major new method of preventing genetic disorders, avoids the need for prenatal diagnosis and the possibility of t
Multiplex telomere fluorescence in situ hybridization assay
The multiple telomere FISH technique described in this chapter is the Chromoprobe Multiprobe-T system developed by Cytocell, which uses a microscope slide divid
Nuclease digestion of purified genomic DNA by Micrococcus spp.
MNase can cut DNA non-randomly. therefore, to determine how this naturally non-random pattern is affected by nuclear proteins such as histones, it is important
Experiments on the effect of environment on gene expression in Drosophila
Many aspects of phenotype are influenced by the genetic composition of an organism and the environment in which it lives, so it can be said that phenotype is a
