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.

Ideal magnet for all of your low volume needs. From Low elution 96-well PCR applications to 384-well, the X396 has you covered. No need to purchase two separate plates anymore. 96-well volumes as low as 5 µL are achieved from 96-well, PCR plates on the inside of the magnet, while the outside of each magnet will pull beads to well sides in 384-well plates.
ANSI/ SBS Footprint (127.75mm x 85.50mm) to fit into any automated liquid handling robot on bottom. ANSI/SBS footprint on top to accept all common microplates.
Integrated Cushion base for maximum recovery. Helps aid in set-up, robot positioning inconsistencies, and labware consumable inconsistencies
Features include solid aluminum alloy construction and hard coat anodized finish for years of trouble-free use, and compatible with any magnetic beads
