Figure 1From: Long-term stability of RNA in post-mortem bovine skeletal muscle, liver and subcutaneous adipose tissuesStability of total RNA in bovine tissues during post-mortem storage at 4°C. The stability of total RNA was determined by agarose gel electrophoresis assay (i) and Agilent Bioanalyzer assay in (ii) skeletal muscle (a) and liver (b) (h- hours; d- days at 4°C). (For subcutaneous adipose tissue, because of the presence of high variability among the four animals studied, it was not appropriate to select an individual representative animal.)Back to article page
