Chromosome Displacement in and Extraction from Human Cells at Different Mitotic Stages

Nature volume 232, pages 33–36 (1971)Cite this article

Abstract

Chromosomes of HeLa, ERK, and human embryonic lung cells have been manipulated at different mitotic stages. A method for releasing chromosomes from metaphase human embryonic lung cells has been developed and seven HeLa cell lines have been established from individual mitotic cells isolated and cloned after manipulation.
