Karyotying is a technique to find chromosomal abnormalities such as Flinefeture, syndrome, Y chromosome microdeletions, Turner syndrome, sex reversal and other translocations in male and female infertility. Do You know? 15% of the world population suffer from infertility. 1 in 6 couples faces difficulties to reproduce. Karyotype abnormalities are reported in 2 to 14% of […]

In this article, we have listed images of structure and labeled diagrams of chromosomes, labeled chromosome images of different conditions and other images. Labeled structure of chromosome: We have a tone of articles, blog posts and other information regarding the structure of chromosomes on the internet. So I think, explaining everything, again and again, is

Chromosome 18 deletion occurs when either of the p or q arms or its part or some fragment gets deletion from either copy. Some of the common deletions are chromosome 18p deletion, distal 18q deletion and proximal 18q deletion. Chromosome 18 is a short submetacentric chromosome having 80Mb in size comprises a 2.5% portion of

“3p mosaic deletion duplication syndrome is one of the rarest genetic/chromosomal conditions that involve both deletion and duplication of chromosome 3, which is congenital.” Deletion and duplication are the types of chromosomal aberrations. Deletion is when some portion of a chromosome gets removed from the chromosome. While duplication is when some portion gets copied or

Two important parts of the human blood are plasma and serum, which have a major portion of water, protein and other biomolecules. Still, serum and plasma are different in many ways and have different applications. Why do we need to understand the differences and similarities between plasma vs serum? Because both have an important role

Karyotype and karyotyping are similar terms, though, are different. Karyotyping is a genetic process of obtaining metaphase chromosomes while karyotype is an arranged form of it. A standard form of a karyotype is when arranged pairwise in order to encounter any defects. The karyotyping or put simply, a karyotype is a technique to observe and

A type of natural growth media-rich in nutrients, extracted from cattle meatpacking; as a byproduct is known as fetal bovine serum. Tissue culture or cell culture is one of the most valuable, important and advantageous methods for the plant, animal and bacterial culture. Culture or cell culture is an artificial method to grow cells outside
“The cell culture media is a composition of nutrients like amino acids, carbohydrates, vitamins and other ingredients essential for the growth of cells in vitro.” Culture allows scientists to learn more about cells and related things! The cell culture is an aseptic condition to isolate cells followed by growing them artificially, in vitro processes using

The R banding is reverse banding or reverse Giemsa banding used to stain the regions of GC, a complement to G bands. We are exploring varied chromosome banding techniques that are used for various clinical investigations and other applications. So far we have discussed, GTG banding, FQF banding, C banding, NOR banding and T banding.
