| Remarks |
The biopsy site is the mesial aspect of the mid-upper left arm, taken antemortem. The primary culture was initiated from explants of a 2 mm-punch biopsy. The cell morphology is fibroblast-like. The culture is a mosaic with karyotype: 46,XX/46,XX,t(5;12)(q34;q21); 90%/10% with 2% of the cells examined showing random chromosome loss and 2% showing random chromosomal aberrations. A culture initiated from a biopsy taken 14 years earlier from this same donor is AG07308. Donor is sister of AG07307. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
