Article Title: Direct estimation of serological H-Y antigen by flow cytometry
Abstract: This study was undertaken to evaluate the efficiency of flow cytometry in the detection of the serological H-Y antigen, and to survey expression of HY in the normal human population. Peripheral blood leukocytes (granulocytes) were reacted with monoclonal H-Y antibody, gw-16, and with FITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG, and then were scored for fluorescence in the flow cytometer. Assigned H-Y phenotype was correlated accurately with sex phenotype in 33 out of 38 women and 62 out of 65 men. Data were evaluated by exploratory data analysis (EDA). © 1990 Springer-Verlag.
