RNA Quantification

RNA quantification is a laboratory process used to measure the amount of RNA, a type of genetic material involved in gene expression, present in a sample. It helps scientists understand how active certain genes are in cells or tissues. Techniques like spectrophotometry or fluorescence-based assays are commonly used to determine RNA concentration and purity. Accurate measurement of RNA is essential for research, diagnostics, and studying cellular functions, ensuring that experiments or analyses are based on reliable, consistent data.
