A PCR assay using capillary electrophoresis was designed for the detection of c-erbB-2 gene amplification in alcoholformalin-acetic acid (AFA)-fixed, paraffin-embedded biopsies from 81 consecutive breast tumors. c-erbB-2 expression was analyzed in the same samples using immuno-histochemistry (IHC).
