Description 

The RNAok™ RNase Inhibitor is a recombinant mammalian RNase inhibitor which possesses very high affinity for eukaryotic pancreatic-type ribonuclease. The RNAok™ RNase Inhibitor forms a 1:1 complex with pancreatic RNase A by noncovalent binding, presenting a noncompetitive inhibitory activity on these pancreatic enzymes. RNAok™ RNase Inhibitor is active against RNase A, RNase B, RNase C but not RNAse H, RNase I, RNase T1, RNase T2, and S1 nuclease. RNAok™ RNase Inhibitor is compatible with RT-PCR enzymes such as AMV, M-MLV and ExcelRT™ Reverse Transcriptase or Taq DNA polymerase.

Application

• cDNA synthesis
• in vitro translation
• in vitro transcription
• One-step RT-PCR
• Separation and identification of specific ribonuclease activities

Overview

• Ensure optimal results for sensitive applications like NGS
• Up to a tenfold increase in microRNA mapping during sequencing runs to reduce costs
• Purification and enrichment of intact urinary exosomes for functional studies.
• Bind and elute all RNA irrespective of size or GC content, without bias.
• Isolate all sizes of RNA, including microRNA, irrespective of size or GC content, without bias.
• No phenol extractions, Proteinase K treatment, nor carrier RNA required.
• No time-consuming ultracentrifugation, filtration nor special syringes are required.
• No precipitation reagents nor overnight incubation required.
• Compatible with urine from any species.
• Pure exosomes are purified and are free-from any other RNA-binding proteins.
• Purification is based on EXTRAClean spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix.

Norgen’s EXTRAClean Urine Exosome Purification and RNA Isolation Mini Kit constitutes an all-in-one system for the purification of exosomes and the subsequent isolation of RNA from different urine sample volumes ranging from 250 μL to 1 mL. The purification is based on spin column chromatography that employs Norgen’s proprietary resin. The EXTRAClean columns undergo stringent processing and rigorous quality control measures to minimize contamination traces, ensuring optimal results for sensitive applications such as NGS. The kit is designed to isolate all sizes of RNA, including microRNA. The kit provides a clear advantage over other available kits in that it does not require any special instrumentation, protein precipitation reagents, extension tubes, phenol/chloroform or protease treatments. Moreover, the kit allows the user to elute into a flexible elution volume ranging from 50 μL to 100 μL. The purified RNA is free from any protein-bound circulating RNA and of the highest integrity. The purified RNA can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time PCR, reverse transcription PCR, NGS application, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, and expression array assays.

Introduction

HiPure Bacterial RNA Kit uses silica gel column purification to simplify the extraction. The whole process does not require phenol chloroform extraction and time-consuming alcohol precipitation. The kit is suitable for efficiently extracting RNA from various bacterial samples. The purified RNA can be directly used for RT-PCR, Northern hybridization, etc. The kit has included lysozyme and glass beads, which can be used to treat gram-negative bacteria which is easy to be lysed, as well as gram-positive bacteria which is hard to be lysed, including enterococcus faecalis, staphylococcus, etc.

Principle

Hipure silica gel column is based on glass fiber filter membrane with high binding force. Under the condition of high concentration of ionizing agent (such as guanidine hydrochloride or guanidine isothiocyanate), the filter membrane can adsorb nucleic acid through hydrogen bond and electrostatic, while protein and other impurities are not adsorbed and removed. The filter membrane adsorbed with nucleic acid is washed to remove the residual protein and salt. Finally, the nucleic acid adsorbed on the filter membrane can be washed out with low salt buffer (such as buffer TE) or water. The obtained nucleic acid has high purity and can be directly used in various downstream experiments.

Advantages

• Fast – several samples can be extracted in 30 minutes
• High purity – the purified RNA can be directly used in various downstream applications
• High recovery – RNA can be recovered at the level of PG
• Good repeatability – silica gel column purification technology can obtain ideal results every time
• Broad spectrum – it can deal with various bacteria, including Gram-positive bacteria that are difficult to be lysed
• Sufficient components – the kit contains carried lysozyme and glass beads

Storage and Stability

The kit components can be stored at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. Due to the lack of antibacterial agents, RNase Free Water may be contaminated by bacterial or fungal when placed or operated at room temperature. It is recommended to pack and store at 2-8°C to reduce contamination.
