title: [Use of Blasto-Kit for cytogenetic analysis].
abstract: We have considered the possibility of using commercial Blasto-Kit, with AB pool, for chromosome analysis. Comparative researches have been made between Blasto-Kit-AB and Blasto-Kit in which AB serum was replaced by FCS. Using 0.1 ml of whole blood lymphocyte response to PHA after incorporation of thymidine H3 and the mitotic rate obtained have been evaluated. The Blasto-Kit-AB gives better results if compared with Blasto-Kit-FCS either in lymphocyte response to PHA or in chromosome analysis.
