Double stranded DNA in quiescent cells is easily denatured by weak acid into single strand. As double stranded nucleic acid combined with methyl green and single stranded nucleic acid with pyronin, we make use of methyl green pyronin staining method to the cells treated with weak acid to distinguish proliferating from quiescent cells. This paper reports the observation of leukemia cells in the bone marrow smears of 100 cases of untreated acute leukemia by DNA differential staining method. The percentage of Go cells was lowest in ALL and highest in APL.展开更多
