| Abstract |
Chromosome banding is an essential technique used in chromosome karyotyping to identify normal and abnormal chromosomes for clinical and research purposes. Giemsa (G)-, reverse (R)-, and centromere (C)-banding are the most commonly dye-based chromosome-banding techniques. G-banding involves the staining of trypsin-treated chromosomes and R-banding involves denaturing in hot acidic saline followed by Giemsa staining. C-banding is specifically used for identifying heterochromatin by denaturing chromosomes in a saturated alkaline solution followed by Giemsa staining. Different banding techniques may be selected for the identification of chromosomes. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 24 January 2018.
All research outputs
#20,365,559
of 22,914,829 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#9,921
of 13,131 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#355,358
of 420,479 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#842
of 1,074 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,914,829 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,131 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 420,479 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,074 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
