title: Sequential and combined G-banding for identifying breakpoints in sister chromatid exchanges.
abstract: A simple new method is described for obtaining sequential and a combination of differential sister chromatid staining and G-banding in the same metaphase. Using this method the sister chromatid exchanges and chromosome lesion breakpoints can be precisely localized in particular bands of individual chromosomes.
