ABSTRACT:
A process is provided for performing polymerase chain reactions inside of intact cells. Measurement of genetic parameters and observation of genetic properties while maintaining the integrity of the DNA or RNA in a cell is accomplished by passing a suspension of cells through a flow cytometer wherein the properties and parameters can be measured on a cell by cell basis.
