The Integrity and Yield of Genomic DNA Isolated from Whole Blood Following Long-Term Storage at −30°C
3 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
Long-term storage of whole blood can affect the integrity of DNA if it is not done under optimal conditions. The aim of this study was to determine whether long-term storage (2–19 years) of whole blood samples at −30°C had a negative effect on the quality or quantity of genomic DNA that could be recovered at extraction. Genomic DNA was isolated from 2758 whole blood samples collected in 4 mL EDTA vacutainers from...
