Abstract excerpt
6-Thioguanine-resistant (TGR) mutant lymphocytes in human blood are usually enumerated by the cloning assay which allows the molecular characterisation of the HPRT mutations to be detected. A "short-term" alternative approach is provided by the anti-bromodeoxyuridine (anti-BrdU) technique in which TGR lymphocytes are identified immunocytochemically by their ability to synthesise DNA in the presence of...
