Osmosis video - Fluorescence in situ hybridization

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a molecular cytogenetic technique that uses fluorescent probes to detect and localize the presence of specific DNA sequences on chromosomes. This technique can be used to detect chromosomal abnormalities, such as translocations, duplications, insertions, and deletions. FISH can also be used to identify and map the location of gene sequences on chromosomes.
