Impact of long-term storage and freeze-thawing on eight circulating microRNAs in plasma samples

Sample collection, processing, storage and isolation methods constitute pre-analytic factors that can influence the quality of samples used in research and clinical practice. With regard to biobanking practices, a critical point in the sample's life chain is storage, particularly long-term stor...
