Urine Exfoliated Cell and Bacteria RNA Purification Kit
Product Info
Document
Product Info
Overview
Purify all sizes of RNA (including microRNA) without the need for phenol
Isolate and detect total RNA from 1 mL and up to 50 mL urine
Provides high-quality RNA for sensitive applications – isolate RNA from as little as 100 cells
Rapid processing time from sampling to downstream testing
Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix
This kit provides a rapid spin column method for the isolation and purification of total RNA (including microRNA) from exfoliated cells that have been shed into the urine from the urinary tract. 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, as well as from the contaminating species found in urine such as glucose and salts, without the use of phenol or chloroform. The purified RNA is of the highest integrity and can be used in a number of downstream applications including real-time RT-PCR, qRT-PCR, Northern blotting, NGS, and expression array assays. Multiple samples can be processed in 20 minutes.
Background
RNA biomarkers from exfoliated cells can be used as non-invasive tools for a number of diagnostic and research applications including the diagnosis and monitoring of bladder, kidney, or other urinary-tract cancers.
~1μg RNA per 1 x 105 cells (For Exfoliated Cells – Varies due to cell density sample)~0.5μg RNA per 1 x 107 cells(For Bacteria – Varies due to cell density sample)
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.
Influenza virus infection of birds, humans and other animals is a major public health problem worldwide. Influenza viruses are classified as either type A, B or C based on differences in their nucleoproteins and matrix proteins. The type A viruses are the most virulent human pathogens among the three influenza types and cause the most severe disease and epidemics. The different types can be further classified into subtypes based on antigenic differences in two surface glycoproteins; hemagglutinin and neuroamidase. All known subtypes of influenza A can be found in birds (H1-H16, N1-N9), while a limited number of the subtypes have been found in humans (H1-H3, N1 and N2). However, over the past few years, various subtypes of Influenza A viruses, including H5N1, have been reported to infect humans (WHO, 2006). In addition, the coexistence of human influenza viruses and avian influenza viruses may provide an opportunity for genetic material to be exchanged between these viruses. This could potentially create a new virulent influenza strain that is easily transmissible and lethal to humans (Food Safety Research Information Office, 2006). Thus, there is the need for sensitive diagnostic tests to allow for the rapid and early detection of these H5 influenza virus infections, to help reduce the risk of epidemics or pandemics in both animals and humans.
