Have a look at Dr. Karina Standahl Olsen’s poster at the European Biobank Week virtual event (November 17-20, 2020) on the Norwegian Women and Cancer Study presented by Dr. Karina Standahl Olsen, Associate Professor, Core Facility for Biobanking, UiT The Arctic University of Norway.

November 17-20, 2020

Join us at the EBW virtual event 2020 and visit the poster of Dr. Karina Standahl Olsen from UiT The Arctic University of Norway to learn more about workflow evaluation on the impact of specimen transport and storage on RNA quantity and purity, integrity and suitability for gene expression analysis using PAXgene Blood RNA System.

RNA profiles are unstable in whole blood. Specimen stabilization is key to avoiding preanalytical errors. A dedicated RNA stabilization tube should be used for blood collection. The PAXgene Blood RNA System integrates the key steps of whole blood collection, intracellular RNA profile stabilization, specimen storage and transportation and, RNA isolation and purification. By minimizing the unpredictability associated with pre-examination steps, this system generates high yields of quality intracellular RNA for enhanced accuracy of RNA analysis.
