I am working with plasma miRNAs and struggling to obtain a stable endogenous control for the same. I am also using synthetic spike-ins during each technical step. I would be studying 8 microRNAs (excluding the spike-ins) in ~180 samples using qPCR. Would it be advisable to use global mean normalization for this kind of study?
If yes, then kindly provide the guidance for the same.
Thank you all, for the help.
