A comparative study of RNA yields from museum specimens, including an optimized protocol for extracting RNA from formalin-fixed specimens

2022-08-02

Abstract excerpt

Animal specimens in natural history collections are invaluable resources in examining the historical context of pathogen dynamics in wildlife and spillovers to humans. For example, natural history specimens may reveal new associations between bat species and coronaviruses. However, RNA viruses are difficult to study in historical specimens because protocols for extracting RNA from these specimens have not been opt...
