The distribution of nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) was studied in Papanicolaou preparations of cervical smears in order to distinguish benign from preneoplastic lesions. Destained smears (six defined as normal, six as inflammatory with squamous metaplasia, six as CIN I, six as CIN II, and five a

Nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) of Chinese hamster chromosomes have been demonstrated by using a Coomasie brilliant blue dye (CBB) method. The staining procedure involved is simple and the results are reproducible. The staining process is easily controllable because over-staining of the chromosom
Nucleolar organizer regions stained selectively with a silver colloid technique (AgNOR) were evaluated during the process of tumour promotion in the skin of mice. Tumour promotion and control skin samples were processed for identification of AgNOR by light microscopy and submitted to a morphometric
A reliable technique for staining human chromosomal nucleolar organizers (NOR's) with silver solutions is described. The NOR's can be selectively stained dark brown by silver solutions leaving the chromosome arms unstained and available for counterstaining with orcein or Giemsa dyes. Unequivocal ide
