Human Male Karyotype — G-Banded Chromosomes
Human Male Karyotype — G-Banded Chromosomes

Complete G-banded karyotype of a human male (46,XY) showing all 22 pairs of autosomes and the X and Y sex chromosomes. Each chromosome is arranged by size and banding pattern, with characteristic Giemsa dark and light bands visible for cytogenetic identification and analysis.

Human Metaphase Chromosome Spread — Brightfield
Human Metaphase Chromosome Spread — Brightfield

Brightfield microscopy image of a human metaphase chromosome spread preparation. Individual chromosomes are visible as distinct condensed structures arrested during cell division, suitable for cytogenetic analysis, counting, and banding studies.

Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) — Chromosome Mapping
Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) — Chromosome Mapping

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) image showing fluorescently labeled DNA probes hybridized to specific chromosomal regions. FISH enables visualization and mapping of genetic material within individual cells, identifying specific genes or chromosomal segments through complementary fluorescent probe binding.
