Feulgen stained nuclei of PHA-stimulated human blood lymphocytes were used for cytophotometric chromatin pattern analysis. Similar distributions of low optical density values indicating the predominance of diffuse chromatin were obtained for G1, S and G2 cells. Condensed chromatin was predominant in G0 and M nuclei. Integral versus average optical densities scatter plots analyses permitted one to distinguish cells undergoing different phases of cell cycle including G0 and G1.
