Analytical Validity: Help
Assay Sensitivity & Specificity For probe sensitivity and specificity, peripheral blood specimens from five normal males (all karyotyped 46,XY) were hybridized with each probe or probe set. Two hundred metaphases (40 per male) total were analyzed for the specificity of probe hybridization. At least 5 images were taken for each … View more
