Biotin-PEG4-alkyne

Biotin-PEG4-alkyne is a PEG linker containing a biotin group and a terminal alkyne. Biotin is useful for affinity-based applications such as pull-down assays or for ligating with streptavidin proteins while terminal alkynes are used in copper (I) click chemistry with azides to form stable triazoles with a target molecule. The inclusion of a PEG linker in this molecule improves its aqueous solubility.

Overview

Isolate all sizes of RNA, including microRNA, irrespective of size or GC content, without bias.
Versatile sample input ranges
Isolate all sizes of free-circulating RNA, including microRNA
The purified exosomal RNA is free from any circulating RNA-binding proteins
No phenol extractions, Proteinase K treatment, nor carrier RNA
No time-consuming ultracentrifugation, filtration nor special syringes are required
No precipitation reagents, nor overnight incubation required
Concentrate isolated exosomal RNA and are free-circulating RNA into a flexible elution volume ranging from 50 µL to 100 µL
Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix

These kits provide a fast, reliable and convenient method to sequentially isolate and concentrate exosomal RNA as well as Free-Circulating RNA from different plasma/serum sample volumes. The purification is based on spin column chromatography that employs Norgen’s proprietary resin. These kits are designed to isolate all sizes of RNA, including microRNA as well as all sizes of the free-circulating protein-bound RNA, including microRNA. These kits provide a clear advantage over other available kits in that they do not require any special instrumentation, protein precipitation reagents, extension tubes, phenol/chloroform or protease treatments. Moreover, these kits allow the user to elute into a flexible elution volume ranging from 50 µL to 100 µL. The RNA isolated from the purified exosomes is free from any protein-bound circulating RNA and is of the highest integrity. Moreover, the free-circulating, protein-bound, RNA is free from any exosomal RNA. The purified RNA 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.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 2 years after the date of shipment. It is recommended to warm Lysis Buffer A for 20 minutes at 60°C if any salt precipitation is observed.

Important Note
This kit is suitable for the purification of exosomes from fresh or frozen serum or plasma prepared from blood collected on either EDTA or Citrate. Plasma samples prepared from blood collected on heparin should not be used as heparin can significantly interfere with many downstream applications such as RT-PCR.
