Correlation between RIN values and RNA quantities of samples between microfluidic chips. RNA quality (a) and quantity (b) for LCM samples, PCa cell lines and whole tissue sections was measured in two independent Agilent Bioanalyzer microfluidic chips. The correlation between measured RNA quality values was high (r = 0.89). Measurement of RNA quantity level varied between duplicate readings (r = 0.68)
