Abstract
Differential staining of sister chromatids in BrdU-substituted human chromosomes is demonstrated by an ammoniacal silver carbonate procedure. With this method the chromosomes exhibit a subchromatid structure. Because proteolytic treatment indicated that the silver carbonate binds the chromosome proteins, changes of these components may be inferred in the BrdU-substituted chromosomes. Sister chromatid exchanges could be identified.This publication has 18 references indexed in Scilit:
