1.
Add 250 μL RML Buffer into each well of a 1.2 mL round-well plate.
2.
Cut 2-5 paraffin sample sections between 5-10 μm to be placed in each well of the 96
plate. Note: Do not use the first 2-3 sections.
3.
Immediately place 2-5 sections into each well of the round-well plate.
4.
Centrifuge at 4,000 x g at room temperature for 2 minutes.
5.
Incubate at 80°C for 15 minutes to melt the paraffin. Mix the sample a few times by
gently shaking the tube. Make sure that the tissue sections stay submerged in the
solution.
Note: Seal the plate with sealing film to prevent evaporation during incubation.
