ANALYTICAL METHODS FOR IDENTIFYING CHROMOSOMAL ABERRATIONS

摘要

2105467 9216662 PCTABS00016 Methods for identifying the existence, and optionally the location, of chromosomal aberration(s) in the genome of an organism are disclosed. Intact, chromosomal DNA is hybridized with one or more clones constructed from chromosomal DNA derived from an organism of the same species as the organism to be tested. By identifying the existence of a chromosomal aberration, the susceptibility of an individual to certain disease states can be predicted, and/or the nature of a given disease state can be ascertained with greater certainty.
