## Abstract Admixture of normal and neoplastic cells is a serious problem in the evaluation of tumor cell kinetic parameters by flow cytometry, in particular for DNA diploid tumors. The admixture of nonβneoplastic cells, such as stromal cells and inflammatory cells, can disturb the estimation of th
Tumor DNA content was determined by flow cytometry in 24 surgically resected specimens from patients with primary lung cancer to compare results from fresh and paraffin-embedded specimens. We found a good correlation in DNA indices between fresh and paraffin-embedded specimens (I. = .978), although
