Evaluation of FFPE-extracted nucleic acid quality and performance
7 Aug 2026Next generation sequencing (NGS) assays and other advanced genomic techniques for tumor profiling require sufficient and high-quality nucleic acid input. Formalin fixed and paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples are a common, yet challenging type of patient sample often used in these tests.
Extraction of nucleic acids from FFPE is a critical step that can affect the ability of the assay to accurately detect all variants in a patient sample. In this scientific poster, LGC Diagnostics & Genomics - SeraCare Clinical Diagnostics assesses the yield, quality, and performance of nucleic acids obtained with industry-leading FFPE extraction kits using various Seraseq FFPE standards.

Clinical ChemistryBiochemistry (or clinical chemistry) involves the analysis of bodily fluids using chemical tests. Techniques used include HPLC, chromatography, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, immunochemical, electrophoresis, turbidometric / spectrophotometric assay, MRI and ISE analysis. Tests are often carried out on plasma or serum but urine (urinalysis) and fecal specimens are also processed.
