We have investigated the use of fluorescence banding patterns for the resolution of metaphase chromosomes by slit-scan flow cytometry. Fluorescence scans of R-banded chromosomes have been obtained for the entire human karyotype. Metaphase chromosomes were R-banded in suspension by staining with chromomycin A3 after hypotonic treatment in Ohnuki's buffer. Specific fluorescent landmark bands were detected for human chromosomes 1-12. Scans obtained for chromosomes 13-22 did not contain sufficient information for classification. Characteristic fluorescence patterns for human chromosomes 1 and 3 provided the clearest evidence for the detection of R-bands by slit-scan flow cytometry. Specific patterns were detected for human chromosomes 9-12 in which the number and placement of the fluorescent bands served as classifiers.
