The RNA assessment report includes a trace, RIN number and RNA concentration. The RNA concentration is not reliable, and if needed for LCM, FACS, FNA’s samples, it should be specifically requested on the order form submitted. We will use in-house standards to insure a more accurate RNA concentration reading for those who request this need. The RIN number is an indication of the integrity of the RNA based on using the ribosomal subunits as a surrogate for the intactness of mRNA.
