Determination of tissue morphology and RNA integrity from rabbit’s heart archive sample in long term tissue storage / Asiah Mohd Suboh

Formalin fixed samples become a valuable tool for detection of gene expression marker upon diagnosing a diseases. The used of 10 % formalin become a gold standard for histopathological analysis but the effect of formalin fixation in prolong tissue storage influence the credibility of the molecular m...
