However, in 10 of 12 samples RNA concentrations between 0.11 – 0.79 ng/μl were measured. Furthermore, in 9 of 12 samples blood-specific miRNA (miR-451a) was detected. Summarizing, none of the experimentally contaminated barrels was RNA-free despite the performed cleaning procedure. Further investigation showed, that even “professional” cleaning…[Read more]
