Relationships between histology, cloning efficiencies and estrogen receptors were studied in a group of breast cancer patients. Mechanical disaggregation gave poor cellular yields since cells were ready for the bioassay in only 66% of the patients. Comparisons between clonogenic assay, histology and estrogen status of human breast cancer are of a limited value, because of the small number of patients in the study.
