Protein Extraction from Methanol-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Tissue blocks: A New Possibility Using Cell Blocks

In the current era of minimally invasive techniques for obtaining tissue samples for diagnosis and prognosis there is a need for methods to use “limited material” specimens for preclinical investigation. In the current study, we investigated methanol-fixed paraffin-embedded (MFPE) cell blocks for protein yield employing the Cellient automated cell block system. This system utilizes methanol fixation …
