Illumina recently released an array protocol for paraffin-embedded or degraded RNA samples called the WG-DASL Expression Arrays. These arrays fit 8 samples to a slide and incorporate a modified amplification protocol that can be used with degraded template. The miRNA expression protocol uses the same method and can also be run using degraded RNA samples.
