title: Ixodes ricinus synganglions, non-engorged females, replicate 2
organism: Ixodes ricinus
description: Ticks were sampled by flagging the vegetation, on a single site. This sample represents synganglions from a pool of 25 adult non-engorged females of Ixodes ricinus. Synganglions were dissected by Caroline Hervet at INRAE-Oniris Nantes, pooled, and flash frozen. RNA was extracted using the Nucleospin RNA XS protocol, with a DNAse.
