Can I send you extracted RNA instead of samples in TRIzol and can I use an alternative extraction method?
A. You can send extracted RNA to us but we recommend dissolving the RNA in DEPC water and then sending it to us on dry ice. You should also forward a picture of the gel you ran to confirm the RNA is not degraded. Please also measure the RNA concentrations and add these data to the project excel sheet. We only recommend use of TRIzol for RNA extraction.
