title: The identification of human chromosomes by quinacrine fluorescence after hybridisation in situ.
abstract: A method is described for producing fluorescent bands on human chromosomes by staining with quinacrine after hybridisation in situ. The advantages of the method include the eslimination of artefacts arising from staining before hybridisation, the fact that there is no reduction in sample number between staining and autoradiography, the ease with which autoradiographic grains can be identified and counted. and the reduction in exposure time.
