Material obtained by IVT-amplification of RNA from 10-year-old frozen is compared to material recovered by IVT-amplification of RNA from 10-year-old FFPE tissues. Material obtained by IVT-amplification of RNA from 10-year-old frozen is compared to material recovered by CT-RT and IVT-amplification of RNA from 10-year-old FFPE tissues.
