The development of molecular cytogenetics such as FISH and PRINS are especially important for the study of hematologic disorders. With these approaches, not only dividing cells, but also non-dividing cells can be studied for chromosome identification. • PRINS technique is a good alternative to FISH to identify chromosomes both in metaphase and in interphase nuclei. Our results showed no significant difference between these two techniques regarding detection sensitivity and specificity. PRINS is more cost-effective, easier and faster than FISH.

Main advantages of the PRINS technique: • Semi-automated Protocole because of the use of thermocycler • Simple, reproducible and reliable method • Very good ratio cost benefit • Short duration of the reaction (on the average) • Availability of any primers (automatic synthesizer) • The specificity and small size of the primers (18 à 35 mer) does not generate cross reaction • Specificity of centromeric sequences of chromosomes 13 and 21 • More efficient in some cells with more condensed nuclei: the size of primer is much smaller than the size of the probe thus making it easier to pass the nuclear membrane and hybridize to the target DNA Department of Medical Genetics, CHUS & Department of Pediatrics, Université de Sherbrooke, Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada
Main advantages of the PRINS technique: • Detection of unique intragenic sequences • Very low background because of the absence of labeling directly on the primer and the rapidity of the reaction • Good preservation of the integrity of the chromosome structure due to the short incubation time • Multi-target detection: it is very easy to do multi-color PRINS or combine with FISH to simultaneously detect different chromosomes in the same cells.
