Paraffin Treasures: Do They Last Forever?

30 Jul 2014

Abstract excerpt

Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues stored in Departments of Pathology have become valuable sources of material for both diagnostic and research purposes. Obtaining nucleic acids from this material may be challenging, especially after storage for several years. The present study was aimed at evaluating DNA degradation over time by comparing the quality of DNA obtained in 2002 with the quality of DNA...
