RNA sequencing of archived neonatal dried blood spots
Neonatal dried blood spots (DBS) are routinely collected on standard Guthrie cards for all-comprising national newborn screening programs for inborn errors of metabolism, hypothyroidism and other diseases. In Denmark, the Guthrie cards are stored at −20 °C in the Danish Neonatal Screening Biobank an...
