Detailed Description
Total RNA Purification Kit
Offered in twosizes (50ml,100ml), RP1001&RP1002
Biotekes Total RNA Purification Kit provides a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total RNA from cultured animal cells, tissue samples, blood, plasma, serum, bacteria, yeast, fungi, plants and viruses. The kit purifies all sizes of RNA, from large mRNA and ribosomal RNA down to microRNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA). The RNA is preferentially purified from other cellular components such as proteins, without the use of phenol or chloroform. The purified RNA is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time PCR, reverse transcription PCR, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, and expression array assays.
Advantages
#
Fast and easy processing using rapid spin-column format
#
Isolate total RNA, from large rRNA down to microRNA (miRNA)
#
No phenol or chloroform extractions
#
Isolate high quality total RNA from a variety of sources
#
RNA can be isolated and detected from as little as a single animal cell
Precautions and Disclaimers
This kit is designed for research purposes only. It is not intended for human or diagnostic use. Ensure that a suitable lab coat, disposable gloves and protective goggles are worn when working with chemicals.
The Buffer RL contains guanidinium salts, and should be handled with care. Guanidinium salts form highly reactive compounds when combined with bleach, thus care must be taken to properly dispose of any of these solutions
Blood of all human and animal subjects is considered potentially infectious. All necessary precautions recommended by the appropriate authorities in the country of use should be taken when working with whole blood.

Working with RNA
RNases are very stable and robust enzymes that degrade RNA. Autoclaving solutions and glassware is not always sufficient to actively remove these enzymes. The first step when preparing to work with RNA is to create an RNase-free environment. The following precautions are recommended as your best defense against these enzymes.
#
The RNA area should be located away from microbiological work stations
#
Clean, disposable gloves should be worn at all times when handling reagents, samples,
pipettes, disposable tubes, etc. It is recommended that gloves are changed frequently to
avoid contamination
#
There should be designated solutions, tips, tubes, lab coats, pipettes, etc. for RNA only
#
All RNA solutions should be prepared using at least 0.05% DEPC-treated autoclaved
water or molecular biology grade nuclease-free water
#
Clean all surfaces with commercially available RNase decontamination solutions
#
When working with purified RNA samples, ensure that they remain on ice during
downstream applications
