Abstract
Automated methods for extracting nucleic acid from one or more tissue samples disposed on slides are disclosed. The methods utilize an automated slide staining apparatus that dispenses a plurality of nucleic acid extraction reagents onto the tissue sample, thus creating an extracted nucleic acid sample. The extracted nucleic acid sample may be used directly in downstream applications such as nucleic acid amplification or sequencing procedures, or may be further purified.
