  1. The data are a summary of all experiments because identical results were obtained for each DNA with the two methods used for p53 allele typing (allele specific PCR, and PCR-RFLP), and no differences were observed between the two DNA sample sources (peripherical blood leucocytes or neoplastic tissue) from the individual patients.
