High Pure RNA Tissue Kit Low to medium throughput RNA isolation Application Use this High Pure kit to isolate total RNA from mammalian tissues. The isolated RNA can be used for many common molecular biology techniques, such as: •RT-PCR •Northern blotting •RACE •Primer extension •Differential display •cDNA library construction •RNase protection assay •In vitro translation Benefits •Isolates total RNA from a variety of tissues •Prepares RNA samples in approx. 30 minutes •Supplies RNA that is suitable for many downstream applications •Minimizes RNA loss by eliminating time-consuming procedures such as precipitation and solvent extraction Product Description Sample Solid tissue (e.g., mouse liver, spleen, lung, heart): 1 - 25 mg Note: Sample size depends, in part, on the method used to prepare the tissue for the procedure; larger samples (>10 mg) should be processed via rotor-stator homogenization. Background Information Nucleic acids (NA) bind to the surface of glass fiber fleece in the presence of chaotropic salt. This allows the High Pure filter tube to specifically immobilize nucleic acids (both DNA and RNA) while they are freed of contaminants. When the desired product is RNA, the binding conditions can be optimized to ensure immobilization of all the RNA.
