..sorry, it was carried out by the Forensic Medicine Dept. at the Police Dept.

Clarification Ok, reading on it looks like it may be a test to decide the number and type of chromosomes in a human body to see if the body was male or female. Since I am a total newbie in genetics, it is rather mysterious to me :-(

gene splicing by cellular-molecular analysis

Literally, the Arabic expression would mean "chromosomal splicing by cellular-molecular analysis," but I have never heard of that. Gene splicing, however, is well-known.

Thank you for the added note.

In this case, it would be \"chromosomal structure,\" not \"splicing.\"

Sorry. It is \"chromosomal constitution.\"

Take a look at this article:

Determination of sex chromosomal constitution and chromosomal origin of drumsticks, drumstick-like structures, and other nuclear bodies in human blood cells at interphase by fluorescence in situ hybridization.
Peer comment(s):

agree Dina Abdo : I'll go for the literal translation. In medical documents, the literal phrase suggested is the one used, while in medical articles for example, the heading phrase suggested is the one used. Scientifically, I'll go for the literal one :)

Based on Sam's added note, I am rejecting both. I am now suggesting "chromosomal constitution."
Something went wrong...
