What is Karyotype?
Karyotype is a complete set of a human chromosome in a general appearance, arranged in particular shape, numbers and sizes. Karyotype basically is an image representation of an individual chromosome which is performed to check for any abnormalities in number and structure. Karyotype is made by scientists in which a picture is taken of a chromosome from a cell and then cut and ragged according to their size, bending pattern and centromere position. The most common karyotype contained in females is XX chromosome and in male is XY chromosome. For more information you can consult the Best IVF Centre in Punjab.
