Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) assays and small tandem repeat (STR) markers have been successfully employed for the rapid detection of major numerical aneuploidies affecting human autosomes. So far, the analysis of chromosomes X and Y disorders has been hampered by the r

Twenty-six laboratories used X and Y chromosome probes and the same procedures to process and examine 15,600 metaphases and 49,400 interphases from Phaseolus vulgaris-leucoagglutinin (PHA)-stimulated lymphocytes. In Part I, each laboratory scored 50 metaphases and 200 interphases from a normal male
Conventional Xand Y-chromatin and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis based on Xand Y-chromosome specific probes were conducted from buccal smear, on 15 normal males, 15 normal females, and 9 cases suspected of sex chromosome anomalies. The proportion of Xand Y-chromatin in normal fema
Nine males with testicular germ cell tumors were studied by Southern blotting using probes recognizing different regions of the X and Y chromosomes. In the tumors of three patients, an imbalance was noted with a relative deficiency of DNA of Y-chromosomal and a concurrent excess of that of X-chromos
Background: To investigate the possibilities of sperm head volume as a sorting criterion for gender preselection, we determined the magnitude of the difference in volume of X-and Y-chromosome-bearing bull sperm heads. Materials and Methods: Bovine sperm heads were sorted on the basis of their DNA co
