Measurement of cellular DNA mass by flow microfluorometry with use of a biological internal standard

Measurement of cellular DNA mass by flow microfluorometry with use of a biological internal standard

E Tannenbaum et al. J Histochem Cytochem. 1978 Feb.

Abstract

Use of a biological standard (chicken erythrocytes) mixed with experimental cell populations allows control of all variables in flow microfluorometric determination of DNA content. These variables include both staining and instrument procedures. In addition, the use of a biological standard allows determination of cellular DNA mass in unperturbed cell populations. DNA mass measured by FMF technique correlates closely with values reported in the literature that used biochemical techniques.
