Abstract
Trypsinization, used as a pretreatment for Giemsa banding human chromosomes, produced a progressive degradation of metaphase chromosome structure. Over the visible range of G-banding in the light microscope various levels of chromosome structure were revealed in the scanning electron microscope.Keywords
