The relative DNA content of cellular samples from 54 patients affected by breast carcinomas and 20 affected by benign breast lesions (including 11 fibroadenomas) was measured by flow cytometry. All normal tissue samples and 17/20 (85%) specimens from benign lesions exhibited a cytometrically diploid DNA distribution, 3/20 (15%) benign lesions an abnormal DNA content, and 35/54 (65%) carcinomas at least one aneuploid cell subpopulation. Furthermore, 9/54 (17%) tumors were characterized by the presence of more than one aneuploid cell subpopulation. The results also indicate that flow cytometry c

The equiatomic rare earth compounds REPtZn (RE = Y, Pr, Nd, Gd-Tm) were synthesized from the elements in sealed tantalum tubes by high-frequency melting at 1500 K followed by annealing at 1120 K and quenching. The samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction. The structures of four crystals were refined from single-crystal diffractometer data: TiNiSi type, Pnma, a = 707.1(1), b = 430.0(1), c = 812.4(1) pm, wR2 = 0.066, 602 F2, 21 variables for PrPt1.056Zn0.944; a = 695.2(1), b = 419.9(1), c = 804.8(1) pm, wR2 = 0.041, 522 F2, 21 variables for GdPt0.941Zn1.059; a = 688.2(1), b = 408.1
