RNA sequencing Mouse - RAW264.7

RNA-Seq is a method to sequence RNA by applying Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). The quality of RNA is critical for the success of RNA-Seq. The integrity of RNA is measured by the RNA integrity number (RIN). RIN is computed from RNA electrophoresis and electropherogram profiles (the peak area of the 28S rRNA should be approximately twice the peak area of the 18S rRNA). If you get the RIN value lower than 7, the possibility of getting the low quality of RNA-seq data is high. To get a high quality RNA, it is better to work with fresh samples or snap-freeze the tissues in liquid nitrogen as quickly as possible and store them at -80°C until further use. Make sure designated areas and all your filter tips, microfuge tubes, plastic, and glassware are RNase-free.

Using RNA from formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections for sequencing

Hello there! I have some slides with mouse lung tumors and I would like to do rna sequencing. Will I be able to extract enough/good quality rna from RNA from formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections for sequencing to be successful?
