EXTRACTME TOTAL RNA KIT (EM09.1) – Discontinued

The EXTRACTME TOTAL RNA KIT is designed for a rapid and efficient purification of high quality RNA from up to 30 mg of tissue (fresh or frozen) and up to 107 cultured cells. The isolation protocols and buffer formulations were optimized for high isolation efficiency and purity of RNA. The product is intended for research use only.

PRINCIPLE

The EXTRACTME TOTAL RNA KIT utilizes spin minicolumns with membranes which efficiently and selectively bind nucleic acids at high concentration of chaotropic salts. During the first isolation step, a tissue is homogenized in order to disintegrate intercellular bonds (epithelial tissue) and fragmentize high-molecular proteins (muscle or connective tissue). A homogenate is lysed with guanidine thiocyanate and detergents. RNases are inactivated by guanidine thiocyanate and ß-mercaptoethanol (optional). The homogenate is separated from undigested tissue/cell that remains after centrifugation. RNA bounds to a Purification Column membrane by addition  of ethanol. On-column DNase digestion enables removal of remaining genomic DNA. A three-step washing stage effectively removes impurities and enzyme inhibitors. Purified RNA is eluted with the use of low ionic strength buffer or RNase-free water and may be used directly in all downstream applications, such as RT-PCR, RT-qPCR, Northern blotting, cDNA synthesis, primer extension, RNA sequencing, microarrays.
