FAQ-2352
Which deparaffinization method can I use with the AllPrep DNA/RNA FFPE Kit?
Prior to nucleic acid purification, the paraffin in an FFPE sample needs to be removed to allow exposure of the sample to proteinase K. Deparaffinization can either be performed using QIAGEN’s Deparaffinization Solution (recommended), heptane-methanol, or xylene.
