Micronucleus Frequencies in Human Umbilical Cord Blood by the Supravital Staining Method
인체에서의 초생체 염색법을 이용한 제대혈내 소핵 출현 빈도
Abstract
This study was conducted to quantify of micronucleus frequencies in human umbilical cord blood by supravital staining method with acridine orange, and to find some factors that affected on micronucleus frequncies in humans. In this study, we used umbilical cord blood of new born infants that have sufficient reticulocytes compared with adult peripheral blood. The cord bloods were taken after childbirth from 60 normal infants in industrial and coastal region in Korea. The total of 3
