Studies inin situ PCR detected by the BrdU antibody technique

Using the BrdU antibody technique followed by an immuno-chemical staining (BAT), the amplification of DNA fragments specific to human Y chromosome on cell specimen slides was efficiently detected. Whether direct BrdU incorporation into PCR products orin situ hybridization with PCR products on slides, the amplified target DNA fragments of specimen were visualized by BAT under the microscope. The availability of BAT and differences in the sensitivity and efficiency between BAT and dig-11-dUTP labeling in cellin situ PCR were discussed.
