Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues have long served as invaluable resources in biomedical research, particularly in clinical and translational studies. Despite the inherent challenges ...

RNA and DNA extraction kits take formalin-fixed tissue samples by storm, enabling superior quality and yields. Researchers using standard extraction protocols that heat samples to eliminate ...

Expert Rev Proteomics. 2013;10(4):389-400. The authors have been funded, in part, with federal funds under grant 1R21 CA134359 from the NCI Innovative Molecular Analysis Technologies (IMAT) Program, ...

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has transformed genomic research and clinical diagnostics by enabling rapid, high-throughput analysis of genetic material. The application of NGS to formalin-fixed ...

The two main fixation formats used by researchers are formalin fixation followed by paraffin embedding (FFPE) or snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen (referred to as Fresh Frozen or FF). There is less of a ...
