Functional Range
To achieve accurate RIN
e
scores the samples used must be within the RIN
e
functional range as stated in the respective assay Quick Guide. Samples with
concentrations exceeding the RIN
e
functional range can show altered
electropherogram traces. Obtained RIN
e
scores are significantly impacted by
this (Table 3 on page 64).
