DNA Extracted From Aged Formalin‐Fixed Paraffin‐Embedded Specimens of Patients With Papillary Thyroid Carcinomas Can Be Used for Whole Exome Sequencing

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
We aimed to assess the quality of DNA extracted from long‐term stored FFPE specimens of patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma from three hospitals in Hiroshima and their applicability to whole exome sequencing. FFPE samples preserved for up to 55 years may be amenable to sequencing with increased read depth.
