Description The GeneJET™ Stabilized and Fresh Whole Blood RNA Kit is designed for rapid and efficient purification of high quality total RNA from various whole blood samples: fresh, frozen, or human blood samples stabilized with commercial stabilizers such as Tempus™ and PAXgene™
The kit utilizes silica-based membrane technology in the form of a convenient spin column, eliminating the need for expensive resins, toxic phenol-chloroform extractions, or time-consuming alcohol precipitation
The kit includes a DNase l for the enzymatic removal of genomic DNA
RNA can be isolated from whole blood in less than 30 minutes (including cell lysis and DNase l treatment)
Highlights Versatile - compatible with fresh and frozen blood, buffy coat, as well as blood collected in PAXgene™and Tempus ™ Tubes Convenient - specially optimized Lysis Buffer is suitable for RNA stabilization up to 48 h Efficient - up to 4 μg of total RNA from 500 μL of healthy human blood Pure - isolates intact total RNA free of any RT-qPCR inhibitors Applications Isolated total RNA can be used in: RT-PCR RT-qPCR Northern Blotting Includes Lysis Buffer Wash Buffer 1 (conc.) Wash Buffer 2 (conc.) DNase l (lyophilized) DNase I Reconstitution Buffer 2x DNase I Buffer Manganese Chloride Solution Water, nuclease-free GeneJET RNA Purification Columns pre-assembled with Collection Tubes Collection Tubes, 2 mL Collection Tubes, 1.5 mL Hazardous:No Quality Control:Thermo Scientific GeneJET Stabilized and Fresh Whole Blood RNA Purification Mini Kit is qualified by isolating total RNA from 250 μL of human whole blood following the protocol outlined in the manual
The quality of isolated RNA is evaluated spectrophotometrically and by agarose gel electrophoresis
The purified RNA has an A 260 /A 280 ratio between 1.9 and 2.1 and the RNA integrity number (RIN) of ≥ 8
