This Week in the Journal of Molecular Diagnostics

Researchers led by the University of Southern California's Timothy Triche write in the Jo urnal of Molecular Diagnostics that “with the exception of next-generation sequencing (NGS), all miRNA expression profiling approaches use a labeling method to tag the target molecules of interest,” adding that those labeling methods may contribute to the variability seen in miRNA expression . And so they … Continue reading
