SureSelectXT RNA Direct: Enhanced RNA-Seq Optimized for FFPE Samples

Differential expression analysis and detection of novel splicing or fusions events is an important focus for researchers that frequently rely on samples that have been formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE). Agilent introduces the new SureSelect^XT RNA Direct protocol for RNA-Seq capture that, combined with world class capture libraries, enables even FFPE samples to perform reliably and generates RNA profiling data to reveal the biological state of the sample. SureSelect^XT RNA Direct provides you with the ability to:

Generate concordant gene expression data regardless of tissue storage method [Fresh frozen (FF) and FFPE]
Analyze degraded FFPE RNA samples with DV200 values as low as 20%
Eliminate ribosomal depletion or poly(A)-enrichment and associated biases
