โฆ Synopsis
BACKGROUND. Sampling error is a common explanation of noncorrelation in women whose Papanicolaou (Pap) tests show high-grade intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) but whose follow-up cervical biopsies show only cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 1, koilocytosis, or reactive/inflammatory changes. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the validity of sampling error in this setting by determining the proportion of negative colposcopic cervical biopsies in women with HSIL who subsequently undergo cone/loop electrode excision procedure (LEEP) biopsies or repeat cervical biopsies that confirm the diagnosis of highgrade CIN (HGCIN).

The present work suggests that a significant proportion of spontaneous mutations in Escherichia coli are the result of translational errors. This idea is supported by the following observations: (i) Streptomycin can induce the formation of auxotrophic mutants in streptomycin-sensitive cells, but not
