RNA and DNA

ProteoGenex supplies molecular derivatives from human tissues and biological fluids. We have an extensive Biorepository of aliquots available for immediate shipment. Derivatives from individual tumor, diseased or normal human tissues are available. We provide detailed clinical information and pathological report for each specific case. RNA/DNA samples extracted from whole blood collected in PAXgene tubes are also available.

RNA


ProteoGenex isolates RNA from every collected frozen tissue and analyzes each aliquot for RNA integrity and stability using the Agilent Bioanalyzer.

Total RNA is isolated from human tumor and normal adjacent tissue samples and snap frozen within ~30 minutes post resection. Tumor RNA is isolated from a region in the specimen that contains at least 70% tumor cells. RNA is quality assured using the Agilent Bioanalyzer and is suitable for a variety of gene expression analysis applications. All cases are provided with the standard sets of clinical data, Bioanalyzer trace, and an image of the corresponding histological specimen.

Our Biorepository has RNA samples from a broad range of different clinical conditions. A collection of these RNA aliquots is available for purchase online. If you can not find suitable samples online please contact our office or send us an inquiry via e-mail. Custom RNA isolation from selected tissues service is available.

DNA

A collection of DNA samples in our Biorepository is available for customers pursuing genomics and genetics projects. These samples are suitable for genotyping, loss of heterozygosity, mutation analysis, and other applications. ProteoGenex provides custom DNA isolation service as well.
