dc.description.abstractINTRODUCTION: Limited information is available on which methods are suitable to extract DNA from 20-year-old blood samples and samples kept in non-ideal storage conditions. The aims of this study were to assess if DNA can be extracted from whole blood collected and stored at -20 °C for 7-20 years, and to identify which commercial DNA extraction kit is most suitable for this purpose, yielding good quality DNA.en_GB
dc.description.abstractMATERIALS AND METHODS: Nine whole blood samples collected in 1999, 2001 and 2012, all having low (between 100 μL to 200 μL) blood volumes, were used in this study. DNA extraction was performed using three different DNA extraction kits, according to their respective instructions.en_GB
