Application of ribonucleoside vanadyl complex (RVC) for developing a multifunctional tissue preservative solution
Fig 1
Both the RVC-based preservative solution and RNAlater can effectively delay RNA degradation.
(A-B) Quality of RNA in tissue samples (n = 3) preserved with different concentrations of RVC in the preservative solution at 4°C or −80°C for 7 days. (C) Quality of RNA in tissue samples (n = 5) preserved in different preservative solutions at 4°C for 7 days and −80°C for one month (D). NT: stored without any preservative solution; RVC+G: RVC+15% glycerol; RVC+D: RVC+5% DMSO; * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 (compared to the NT group).
