| 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 and the karyotype is 46,XY with 10% of the cells examined showing random chromosome loss. Donor is the son of AG07119A and the brother of AG08048 and AG08049. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
