Abstract
A method of determining the relative number of nucleic acid sequences in test cells which provides for a high resolution during comparative genomic hybridization by keeping all components separate from each other and selecting target nucleic acids which have a high resolution capability for determining genomic imbalances in the test cells and which facilitate a screening of the test cells for over- or under-expression of individual genes.
