Based on the overall evaluation criteria, the results indicate that DNA extracted from all samples, shortly preserved, have suitable quality and reliable reproducibility to be used in diagnostic activities and biomedical research, even if DNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells is more affected by the experimental conditions.
Background The development of next-generation sequencing approaches has accelerated the diagnostic process, although at present, there is a lack of a clear consensus on efficient management of human samples for downstream applications. This study aims to investigate timeframe (in terms of short preservation), temperature, and additional preservation procedures (i.e., freeze and thaw cycles) for human biospecimens to implement the reliability and reproducibility of molecular investigations. Methods Overall, 45 whole peripheral bloods, 22 peripheral blood mononuclear cells samples, 15 saliva, and 15 buccal swab biospecimens (through the extracted DNA) were investigated, assessing yield, integrity, amplifiability, and sizing accuracy via the most common molecular techniques. Results Based on the overall evaluation criteria, the results indicate that DNA extracted from all samples, shortly preserved, have suitable quality and reliable reproducibility to be used in diagnostic activities and biomedical research, even if DNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells is more affected by the experimental conditions. Conclusion Our findings confirm the reliability of peripheral blood samples in almost all the experimental conditions. Saliva and buccal swabs are efficient almost as well, while peripheral blood mononuclear cells, albeit remain a primary source of DNA for molecular screenings, represent a less efficient source.
