TY - JOUR AU - Kolijn, Kimberley AU - van Leenders, Geert J. L. H. PY - 2016 DA - 2016/01/07 TI - Comparison of RNA extraction kits and histological stains for laser capture microdissected prostate tissue JO - BMC Research Notes SP - 17 VL - 9 IS - 1 AB - Laser capture microdissection offers unique possibilities for the isolation of specific cell populations or histological structures. However, isolation of RNA from microdissected tissue is challenging due to degradation and minimal yield of RNA during laser capture microdissection (LCM). Our aim was to optimize the isolation of high-quality RNA from laser capture microdissected fresh frozen prostate tissue on the level of staining and RNA extraction.
