Abstract:
The multicopy mouse Y chromosome DNA probe 80Y/B (1) has been used to probe genomic DNA isolated from male and female bone marrow cells, mixed together in known ratios. It was found that in a mixture with a ratio of 1 male:200 female marrow cells the male cells could readily be detected by this method. The potential use of this technique for assessing repopulation kinetics of marrow transplantation is discussed.
