Electropherograms demonstrating the 18S and 28S rRNA peaks, corresponding to the level of intact RNA in each sample, are used for total RNA quality analysis of random LMD-collected and pooled small samples from cryostat sections of brain (PD21; a), embryonic (ED14; b) and postnatal lung (PD21, c). In the brain (RNA Quality Indicator, RIN = 7.9) and embryonic mouse lung (RIN = 8.9), high quality intact RNA can be detected, while in the identically processed postnatal mouse lung tissue a large part of the RNA appears to be degraded (RIN = 3.2)
