Suspension (S)-FISH, a New Technique for Interphase NucleiUlf Steinhaeusera, Heike Starkea, Angela Nietzela, Joerg Lindenaub, Peter Ullmannb, Uwe Claussena, and Thomas Liehraa Institute of Human Genetics, Jena, Germany b Carl Zeiss Jena GmbH, Jena, Germany Correspondence to: Thomas Liehr, Institut für Humangenetik, Postfach, D-07740 Jena, Germany. E-mail: i8lith@mti-n.mti.uni-jena.de We describe a versatile method for performing fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in suspension instead of on a slide as usually done. This so-called suspension-FISH (S-FISH) opens new possibilities for the analysis of shape and functions of the human interphase nucleus. The procedure is described and the first results using this approach are presented.
