Example of human chromosome labeling and identification using multi-color fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with probes specific for the DNA of individual chromosomes. Using this chromosome paining technique, each chromosome can be given a unique color. Shown are chromosomes from a patient with Werner Syndrome in which a genetic abnormality is seen in the central maroon-colored chromosome with a segment translocated from another chromosome - seen as the gold tip.

本例展示了利用针对单个染色体DNA的特异性探针进行的彩色荧光原位杂交（FISH）技术，对人染色体进行标记和识别。通过这一染色体染色技术，每条染色体均可赋予独特的颜色。图中呈现了一位患有Werner综合症的患者的染色体，其中中央的朱红色染色体出现遗传异常，表现为从另一染色体移位的片段，呈现为金色的尖端。
