A method which allows for the quantitative measurement of DNA in plasma is described. After treatment of plasma with phenol, DNA is precipitated by ethanol using gelatin as a coprecipitating agent. DNA is then measured by nick translation labeling. This assay takes a few hours. It is suitable for th

## RNA, DNA and ribonucleoprotein particles can be recovered from solutions containing less than 0.1 Azso-units/ml by co-precipitation with magnesium phosphate.
Quantitation of message from low-abundance mRNAs and limited availability of tissues requires sensitive methods for probe detection, accurate methods for quantitation of signal, and the ability to strip and reprobe membranes. A random-primed, digoxigeninlabeled probe from cDNA of FMO1, an isoform of
An automated two-dye flow injection analysis system to quantitate DNA and RNA in crude extracts of tissues is described. The method uses the fluorochrome dyes ethidium bromide and Hoechst 33258. DNA concentration is determined directly from its fluorescence in Hoechst dye. RNA is estimated from fluo
