RNA extraction from self-assembling peptide hydrogels to allow qPCR analysis of encapsulated cells.
Self-assembling peptide hydrogels offer a novel 3-dimensional platform for many applications in cell culture and tissue engineering but are not compatible with current methods of RNA isolation; owing to interactions between RNA and the biomaterial. This study investigates the use of two techniques b...
