RNA extraction from FFPE

Postby molecular newbie » Tue Jun 19, 2007 7:49 pm

Has anyone else tried extracting RNA from Formilin fixed parafin tissue? and do you know of an optimal protocol for doing so? because the manufacturers protocol sucks!!!!

Thank you

Have you tried Formapure from Agencourt Biosciences? This kit is designed for RNA extraction from paraffin embedded tissue for real time PCR or microarray use.
