RNA is a tool used in many fields, from molecular and cellular biology to medicine and nanotechnology. For most of these uses, the integrity of RNA is required and must be maintained during storage. Even though freezing is currently the storage method of choice, the increasing number of samples to be stored and the costly use of …Read More
