The Micronucleus Assay on Cryopreserved Whole Blood06:14

The Micronucleus Assay on Cryopreserved Whole Blood

Here we present an optimized protocol for the cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay on cryopreserved whole blood samples. This optimized method of cryopreservation of whole blood for micronucleus analysis is a reliable technique for large-scale sampling and multi-center studies and can be used for other blood-related assays as...

Cytogenetics

Cytogenetics is the field of study devoted to chromosomes, and involves the direct observation of a cell’s chromosomal number and structure, together known as its karyotype. Many chromosomal abnormalities are associated with disease. Each chromosome in a karyotype can be stained with a variety of dyes to give unique banding patterns. More recent techniques, including comparative genomic hybridization and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), allow for detecting specific chromosomal...

An Automated Method to Perform The In Vitro Micronucleus Assay using Multispectral Imaging Flow Cytometry

The in vitro micronucleus assay is a well-established method for evaluating genotoxicity and cytotoxicity but scoring the assay using manual microscopy is laborious and suffers from subjectivity and inter-scorer variability. This paper describes the protocol developed to perform a fully automated version of the assay using multispectral imaging flow...
