Abstract:
A relatively simple method of obtaining high resolution chromosomes from amniotic fluid cells is described. The elongated chromosomes are achieved by adding ethidium bromide (5 micrograms/ml) to the culture 4 1/2 hours before harvesting and the high resolution banding can be produced by usual banding procedures.
