Norgen’s 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix is a ready-to-use solution that contains components required for RT-PCR amplification of RNA templates. The mix includes M-MuLV reverse transcriptase, Taq DNA polymerase, dNTPs, reaction buffer, MgCl2, KCl, and a PCR enhancer/stabilizer. The user needs only to add the template, the primer set and water to the Master Mix to set up the RT-PCR reaction. This convenient 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix reduces the time required to set up PCR reactions and reduces the possibility of contamination, particularly when preparing large numbers of reactions. The optimized master mix allows for robust amplification of RNA templates with high yields of PCR products.
Taq DNA Polymerase is a highly thermostable DNA polymerase that possesses a 5´→ 3´ polymerase activity and a very low 5´→ 3´ exonuclease activity. The source of Taq included with Norgen’s 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix is an E. coli strain with a cloned Taq DNA Polymerase gene from Thermus aquaticus YT-1. M-MuLV Reverse Transcriptase is an RNA-directed DNA polymerase that can synthesize a complementary DNA strand initiating from a primer using either RNA (cDNA synthesis) or single-stranded DNA as a template. The source of the Reverse Transcriptase included with Norgen’s 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix is an E. coli strain with a cloned reverse transcriptase gene from M-MuLV.
Norgen’s 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix is available in 3 convenient sizes:
Cat # 28113 – 100 reactions (sufficient for 100 reactions x 20 µL reaction volume) Cat # 28114 – 200 reactions (sufficient for 200 reactions x 20 µL reaction volume) Cat # 28115 – 500 reactions (sufficient for 500 reactions x 20 µL reaction volume)
2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix (5 Vials, 100 Reactions each) – Sufficient reagent for 500 x 20 µL reactions
Storage Conditions and Product Stability 2X One-Step RT-PCR Master Mix should be stored at -20°C. For everyday use an aliquot can be stored at 4°C for up to 3 months. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles are not recommended. When stored at the proper temperature this reagent is stable for at least 1 year.

Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix
Norgen’s Preserved Blood RNA Purification Kit II provides a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total RNA from blood that has been preserved using PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes*. 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.
Purification is based on spin column chromatography using Norgen’s proprietary resin as the separation matrix. Norgen’s proprietary resin provides superior affinity to the full size range of RNA molecules, resulting in large and small RNA (miRNA) purification with better linearity and sensitivity. The purified RNA is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time RT-PCR, RT-PCR, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, expression profiling, miRNA cloning and amplification and Next Generation Sequencing.
* PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes are a product of PreAnalytiX GmbH. PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes are not provided.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 1 year after the date of shipment. The DNase I should be stored at -20°C.
This kit is suitable for extracting total pathogen nucleic acid from a variety of clinical samples (including serum and plasma). The kit is based on super paramagnetic particles purification technology. Purified DNA/RNA is ready for downstream applications such as Real Time PCR, biochip analysis, NGS and other related experiments.

Principle
This product is based on the purification method of high binding magnetic particles. The sample is lysed and digested under the action of lysate and Protease. After adding magnetic particles and binding solution, DNA/RNA will be adsorbed on the surface of magnetic particles, and impurities such as proteins will be removed without adsorption. The adsorbed particles were washed with washing solution to remove proteins and impurities, washed with ethanol to remove salts, and finally DNA/RNA was eluted by Buffer NFW.

Storage and Stability
MagBind Particles and Proteinase K Solution should be stored at 2–8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 8 weeks) at room temperature (15–25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for 18 months under these conditions.
