This video demonstrates the protocol for DNA extraction from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded material. This is a multi-day procedure in which tissue sections are deparaffinized with xylene, rehydrated with ethanol and treated with proteinase K to purify and isolate DNA for subsequent gene-specific or genome-wide analysis.

Technical Demonstration of Whole Genome Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization


JoVE 870 8/05/2008

1Department of Cancer Genetics, BC Cancer Research Centre, 2Deeley Research Centre, BC Cancer Agency, 3Photography/Video Production, Multi-Media Services, BC Cancer Agency

This video is a technical demonstration of the hybridization protocol for whole genome tiling path array CGH, which scans the entire human genome using only 25-100 ng of DNA that can be isolated from a variety of sources, including archival formalin fixed material.
