Determination of cell cycle distribution is an important tool in cell biology. Flow cytometric analysis of cellular DNA can provide rapid quantitative information about DNA ploidy and cell cycle distribution. Presented here are three basic protocols for analysis of DNA by flow cytometry. There are many variations of these protocols that may be more appropriate for particular cell types or applications (1 ).
