Overview

• Extract total RNA, including virus & viroid RNA
• Robust lysis buffer is well-suited to even challenging samples such as pine needle, grape leaf, etc
• Isolate total RNA (including microRNA) without phenol
• Isolated RNA is of high quality, integrity and diversity
• Also available in 96-well format for high throughput applications
• Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix

Norgen’s Plant/Fungi Total RNA Purification Kit provides a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total RNA, including virus and viroid RNA, from a wide range of plants. Total RNA can be purified from fresh or frozen plant tissues, plant cells or filamentous fungi samples using this kit. All sizes of RNA are purified, including microRNA (miRNA) . The procedure is rapid and convenient. 

The RNA is purified without the use of phenol or chloroform. The purified RNA is of the highest quality, and 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.  

Norgen’s Plant/Fungi Total RNA Purification Kit is also available in a 96-well (High Throughput) format for high throughput applications.  Purification with the 96-well plates can be performed using either a vacuum manifold or centrifugation.

Introduction

This kit is suitable for high-throughput extraction of total RNA from paraffin embedded tissue samples, including miRNA. The kit is based on superparamagnetic magnetic particle purification technology. The extraction process does not require the use of toxic phenolic chloroform extraction or time-consuming alcohol precipitation.The whole extraction process only takes 120 minutes. The obtained RNA can be directly used in RT-PCR. The high-throughput extraction can be realized by 96 hole magnetic frame and 96 holeo scillator, various nucleic acid extractors (such as KingFisherFle, MagMix32, MagMix 96) or cooperating with the pipette workstation (Hamilton, Tican) for automatic extraction.

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. DNA is released into the lysate. After adding magnetic particles and binding solution, DNA 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 was eluted by Elution Buffer.

Advantages

• Fast – several samples can be extracted in 120 minutes by column method
• Safe – no phenol chloroform extraction required

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K and MagBind Particles should be stored at 2–8°C upon arrival. DNase I should bestored at -20°C. However, short-term storage (DNase I up to 1 weeks, Proteinase K and MagBind Particles 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 at least 18 months under theseconditions.

Description

Nucleic acid testing (NAT) is the method of choice for detection and quantification of a wide range of micro organisms. Primerdesign manufactures and supplies high quality quantitative real-time PCR kits for the detection and simultaneous quantification of numerous significant pathogens . A copy number standard curve is provided for quantification and an the internal extraction template (DNA or RNA), controls for the quality of the nucleic acid extraction and eliminates false negative results.

The kit is designed with the broadest possible detection profile to ensure that all clinically relevant strains and subtypes are detected. Target sequences are selected by working with data from key opinion leaders in the field. Multiple sequence alignments and unprecedented real-time PCR expertise in design and validation ensure the best possible kit.
