Enumeration of semen leucocytes by fluorescence in situ hybridisation technique.
Aim-To determine whether the fluorescent in situ hybridisation technique (FISH) using a total human DNA genomic probe can be used to enumerate semen leucocytes.Methods-Semen samples from five donors were subjected to a mild KC1 solution. These samples were then biotin labelled under FISH conditions using a total human DNA genomic probe and the leucocyte counts were determined. To check the accu...
متن کاملA simple and reliable pretreatment protocol facilitates fluorescent in situ hybridisation on tissue microarrays of paraffin wax embedded tumour samples.
AIMS To describe a robust pretreatment protocol for preparing paraffin wax embedded tissues on tissue microarrays for fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH). The newly developed pretreatment protocol described here was compared with the commonly used sodium thiocyanate based protocol and two different heating methods used in standard antigen unmasking protocols for immunohistochemistry (pres...
متن کاملEvaluation of Chromosomal Aberrations Among Radiotherapy Staff in the City of Tehran Because of Occupational Exposure Using Micronucleus Assay and GTG-Banding
Introduction: Exposure to ionizing radiation as a result of diagnostic, treatment and occupational reasons, has created a remarkable range of cytogenetic damage in the DNA, as the first and main goal of ionizing radiation. The aim of this study is to assess the chromosomal damage in medical radiotherapy workers and its association with effective parameters such as age, sex, duration of employme...
متن کاملIn situ hybridisation in perspective.
In the introduction to this review two questions were posed: is the technology associated with ISH ready for general use, and will the method become an important investigative tool? With the exception of the demonstration of some single and low copy sequences, non-radioactive ISH is now sufficiently developed and simplified to make it a routine technique. It is also clear that ISH will continue...
متن کاملGenotoxic and Antigenotoxic Activity of Silymarin by an In Vivo Bone Marrow Micronucleus Assay and Comet Assay
Introduction: Silymarin is obtained from Silybum marianum (milk thistle), an edible plant that has long been used medicinally for the treatment of liver-related disorders. Silymarin is a powerful hepatoprotective and antioxidant but the anticlastogenic activity, which is an important aspect of its cancer chemoprevention is not known hence the present investigation was carried out to study its...
