Ag-G staining, a rapid technique for producing combined silver staining and Giemsa banding in mammalian chromosomes

Experientia volume 36, pages 625–626 (1980)Cite this article

Summary

A combination of the silver staining method with a Giemsa banding technique is described for mammalian chromosomes. This double staining simultaneously shows silver-stained NORs and a G-band pattern, and thus allows a rapid identification of the NOR-bearing chromosomes.
