We evaluated laser scanning cytometry (LSC) by comparing nuclear DNA ploidy determined by LSC and by flow cytometry (FCM) i n 77 samples of human colorectal cancer from 48 patients. Both methods revealed an aneuploid peak in 30 (62.5%) of the cases, although two samples that were aneuploid by LSC we

## Abstract Budding yeast __Saccharoymyces cerevisiae__ is a powerful model system for analyzing eukaryotic cell cycle regulation. Yeast cell cycle analysis is typically performed by visual analysis or flow cytometry, and both have limitations in the scope and accuracy of data obtained. This study
## Background: Qualitative and quantitative analysis of cellular dna content may be clinically useful in the prognostic evaluation of certain types of malignant tumors, including breast carcinoma. flow cytometric (fcm) analysis has been the most frequently used procedure for dna analysis, but it re
Genetic alterations, such as p53 mutations, may affect a tumour's response to chemotherapy. We have treated two human breast cancer cell lines that differ in p53 status with epirubicin in order to study if there are differences in cell cycle kinetic response. MCF-7 cells express wild-type p53, while
Although various DNA flow-cytometric studies have been performed on meningiomas, the role of DNA ploidy and the S-phase fraction (SPF) in predicting biological tumor behavior remains unresolved. Discrepant results in earlier studies might be due to different preparing, staining and measuring techniq
