Abstract:In uitro studies of BrdU-dependent sister chromatid differential staining typically employ two cycles of BrdU incorporation. Experiments are described which determined the actual fraction of both S-phases that the rat embryonic fibroblasts (Rat-1) cells had to traverse in order to show distinctive differential staining. Following synchronization of cells by a combination of serum deprivation and hydroxyurea blockage, sister chromatid differential staining, labelling index, mitotic index, and per cent DNA repli… Show more
