Abstract:Serum microRNAs (miRNAs) are considered useful as non-invasive biomarkers for different diseases. However, the optimal method for extracting RNAs from serum is currently unknown. In the present study, several RNA extraction kits were used to examine the optimal kit. RNAs were extracted from the serum of 8-week-old C57BL/6NJcl male mice following the protocol of each RNA extraction kit. The yield of the extracted RNA samples was calculated, and an Agilent Bioanalyzer was used to assess the electrophoretic patte… Show more
