Toxicological analyses of medications and chemicals in formalin-fixed tissues and formalin solutions: a review.
Toxicological analyses of medicines and chemicals in formaldehyde-treated specimens are a component of forensic toxicology. This review involves two parts: (i) reactions of formaldehyde with substances in tissues fixed with formalin (aqueous formaldehyde solution) and (ii) the stability of substances in formalin-treated tissues and formalin solutions. Because it was well known that formaldehyde...
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 کاملNucleic Acids Extraction from Formalin-Fixed and Paraffin-Embedded Tissues
Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues are an important sample source for ret‐ rospective studies. Despite its ability to preserve proteins and cell morphology, formalin hinders molecular biology tests since it fragments and chemically modifies nucleic acids, especially RNA. Although several studies describe techniques that allow extracting nu‐ cleic acids from FFPE tissues, so far the...
متن کاملLiquid TissueTM: proteomic profiling of formalin-fixed tissues
INTRODUCTION Proteomic profiling of diseased and normal tissue by mass spectrometry (MS) is at an early stage, yet it promises to decipher proteomic complexities of the tissue microenvironment and to deliver biomarker information with appropriate pathologic and histologic relevance. Mass spectrometric profiling of the complex cellular proteome obtained from diseased tissue has previously been d...
متن کاملMicroRNA in situ hybridization for formalin fixed kidney tissues.
In this article we describe a method for colorimetric detection of miRNA in the kidney through in situ hybridization with digoxigenin tagged microRNA probes. This protocol, originally developed by Kloosterman and colleagues for broad use with Exiqon miRNA probes(1), has been modified to overcome challenges inherent in miRNA analysis in kidney tissues. These include issues such as structure iden...
