Is RNA Amplification Necessary for Microarrays?

RNA amplification using the Van Gelder and Eberwine technique (1) has been used extensively for target synthesis and labeling in array analysis experiments. Amplification of RNA is clearly necessary when working with limited samples (needle biopsies, LCM samples, etc.), but is...

protects cellular RNA within specimens during sample collection and during shipping. Whether you are in the lab, in the OR, or out in the field, you can use this aqueous, non-toxic Tissue Collection:RNA Stabilization Solution from ambient temperatures down to...

Differential Gene Expression Analysis of Pure Cell Populations from Frozen UterineTissue Using Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM) and cDNA Microarrays

Se-Jin Yoon and Kyung-Ah Lee Infertility Medical Center, CHA General Hospital, Seoul 135-081, Korea Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM) is an innovative technique which permits the rapid and reliable procurement of pure cell populations from heterogeneous tissue sections. After LCM, RNA isolated from pure cell populations was amplified to generate a...

A Novel Process for Gene Expression Profiling of Rat and Mouse Tissues from Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Sections Using Microarrays

This application note describes a method for extracting and isolating total RNA from rodent tissues that have been fixed in formalin and embedded in paraffin, and the subsequent amplification of mRNA from these tissues for use in microarray experiments. We have used this methodology to demonstrate that robust and reliable methods do exist for retrieval of...

New Tools for Making and Processing Protein Microarrays.

The use of DNA microarrays in scientific research and drug discovery has become very widespread. However, since it is proteins and not genes that are the vast majority of the true drug targets, there...
