Comprehensive validation of liquid-based cytology specimens for next-generation sequencing in cancer genome analysis
14 Jun 2019
Abstract excerpt
In addition to conventional cytology, liquid-based cytology (LBC) is also used for immunocytochemistry and gene analysis. However, an appropriate method to obtain high quality DNA for next-generation sequencing (NGS) using LBC specimens remains controversial. We determined the optimal conditions for fixation with an alcohol-based fixative for LBC and DNA extraction using cultured cancer cell lines and clinical...
