pubmed:abstractText |
The validity of molecular studies using RNA extracted from decades-old formalin-fixed and embedded tissue blocks is well documented. Formalin-fixed samples are, however, known to be poor materials for molecular biological applications. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of formalin as a preservation agent on RNA quality and relevant molecular applications.
