Combination of QF‐PCR and aCGH is an efficient diagnostic strategy for the detection of chromosome aberrations in recurrent miscarriage [PDF]
Background Our aim was to conduct a comprehensive genetic evaluation using the combination of QF‐PCR (quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction) and aCGH (array comparative genomic hybridization) for the detection of the frequency and type of ...

Impact of Radiation Quality on Microdosimetry and Chromosome Aberrations for High-Energy (>250 MeV/n) Ions [PDF]
Studying energy deposition by space radiation at the cellular scale provides insights on health risks to astronauts. Using the Monte Carlo track structure code RITRACKS, and the chromosome aberrations code RITCARD, we performed a modeling study of single-

Chromosome aberrations in pressure-induced triploid Atlantic salmon [PDF]
Background Triploid organisms have three sets of chromosomes. In Atlantic salmon, hydrostatic pressure treatment of newly fertilized eggs has been extensively used to produce triploids which are functionally sterile due to their unpaired chromosomes ...
