Several types of probes can be used in FISH, including:
Centromeric Probes: These target the centromere regions of chromosomes and are useful for detecting aneuploidy. Telomeric Probes: These target the telomere regions and can be used to study telomere length and integrity. Whole Chromosome Probes: These are used to paint entire chromosomes and are useful for identifying chromosomal translocations. Locus-Specific Probes: These target specific gene loci and are used to detect specific gene amplifications or deletions.
