DNA extraction from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue.
Several DNA extraction methods have been used for formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues, with variable results being reported regarding the suitability of DNA obtained from such sources to serve as template in polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based genetic analyses. We present a method routinely used for archival material in our laboratory that reliably yields DNA of sufficient quality for P...
متن کاملQuantification of HIV DNA in the brain by PCR: differences between fresh frozen and formalin fixed tissue.
HIV-1 DNA extracted from frozen and formalin fixed brain tissue can be detected using PCR. This work has been extended by amplifying, using semiquantitative PCR, HIV DNA extracted from frontal lobe tissue of 16 patients with AIDS (eight positive and eight negative for p24 antigen). DNA was amplified using HIV-1 pol gene digoxigenin labelled primers and detected by chemiluminescence and densitom...
متن کاملDNA extraction from fresh or frozen tissues.
The first step in molecular analysis of patient tissues is preparation of purified, high molecular weight DNA. A number of methods and commercial kits are available for DNA isolation. Traditional organic extraction protocols (1,2) are based on the fact that DNA is soluble in water whereas lipids are soluble in phenol. In these protocols, tissues are disaggregated and then treated with detergent...
متن کاملDna Extraction from Formalin Fixed Franciscana Tissues
The present paper reports the extraction of DNA from formalin-fixed Pontoporia blainvillei tissues. Following the Vachot and Monerot (1996) protocol, fragmented DNA (300-700bp) was extracted from more than 95% of liver and muscle samples. DNA yield in liver samples was significantly higher than in muscle samples (4.574 ± 1.169μg DNA/mg versus 0.808 ± 0.297μg DNA/mg). Similar results were obta...
متن کاملGene Expression Profiles from Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded Breast Cancer Tissue Are Largely Comparable to Fresh Frozen Matched Tissue
BACKGROUND AND METHODS Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded (FFPE) samples represent a valuable resource for cancer research. However, the discovery and development of new cancer biomarkers often requires fresh frozen (FF) samples. Recently, the Whole Genome (WG) DASL (cDNA-mediated Annealing, Selection, extension and Ligation) assay was specifically developed to profile FFPE tissue. However, a tho...
