Absorption cytophotometry: evaluation of three methods for the determination of DNA in Feulgen stained nuclei.
Three methods for the evaluation of the relative amount of DNA per nucleus by absorption cytophotometry are compared. A combination of the two-wavelength method (Patau, 1952; Ornstein, 1952), the one-wavelength two-area method (Garcia, 1965) and the determination of transmission through nuclear plugs is proposed in order to estimate systematic errors made by absorption cytophotometry.
