Abstract

A simple and reproducible silver-staining technique for nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) was developed, use being made of nylon cloth as a coverslip for even impregnation of the silver solution. Ag-NORs were clearly and selectively visualized in human and mouse chromosomes, without equivocal staining of centrometric heterochromatin and background silver grains. © 1980 Business Center for Academic Societies.
