[2008-01-02] MagaVioTM RNA Isolation System |
|
MagaVioTM RNA Isolation System
The Kit provides a very simple, fast and cost effective technique to isolate high quality RNA. Using one simple protocol, high yield of purified RNA can be isolated from various sources including whole blood, leukocytes and tissue. MagaVioTM sample processing is based on proprietary magnetizable particles - MagaVioTM. The pure RNA can be applied extensively in RT-PCR, Northern hybridization, mutant analysis, RNAi and the others.
According to the special interaction, use MagaVioTM RNA Isolation system with a general protocol - sample processing, MagaVioTM adsorption, washing and elution, and can go high-throughput.
Principle and advantage
RNA in the sample is liberated using Protease K (PK) and Lysis Buffer. Released RNA is bound exclusively and specifically to the MagaVioTM Reagent in presence of Binding Buffer. The RNA bound to MagaVioTM particles is captured by the magnet and contaminants are removed by washing with Wash Buffer once or more. The RNA is then eluted from the particles with Elution Buffer or molecular grade water.
MagaVioTM Magnetic technical have great advantages:
Mini sample, and high purification
Simple and streamline separation procedure, used for auto-platform
First elution can acquire 85% or more
No organic solvent
No high salt solution. no inhibitor
No spin column, no centrifuge
