This kit provides a rapid spin column procedure for the isolation of exosomal RNA from urine samples. Users can simultaneously concentrate and isolate high quality exosomal RNA, including microRNA, for use in sensitive downstream assays such as RT-PCR, qRT-PCR, NGS, microarrays and more. The protocol can be completed in under 50 minutes. Urine volumes of 1 to 10 mL can be processed easily and rapidly. All sizes of RNA are recovered at an equal rate without the need for using hazardous chemicals like phenol.
Background
Exosomes are 40 – 150 nm membrane vesicles, which are secreted by most cell types. Exosomes can be found in saliva, blood, urine, amniotic fluid and malignant ascite fluids, among other biological fluids. These vesicles act as cellular messengers, conveying information to distant cells and tissues within the body. The exosomes contain cell-specific proteins, lipids and RNAs, which are transported to other cells, where they can alter function and/or physiology. These exosomes may play a functional role in mediating adaptive immune responses to infectious agents and tumours, tissue repair, neural communication and transfer of pathogenic proteins. Recent work has demonstrated the presence of distinct subsets of microRNAs within exosomes which can inform about the cell type from which the exosomes are secreted. For this reason, exosomal RNAs may serve as biomarkers for various diseases including cancer. As the RNA molecules encapsulated within exosomes are protected from degradation by RNases they can be efficiently recovered from biological fluids, such as urine.

genesig 32 Overview
The genesig q32 Real-Time PCR Instrument is one of the fastest qPCR instruments on the market today due to its rapid heating and cooling. Assembled from just a few building blocks, this robust qPCR instrument allows analysis of up to 32 samples in both tube or strip format. The powerful genesig q32 software is easily installed from a USB flash drive onto any PC or Mac. The genesig q32 is used with 550 genesig Real-Time PCR Kits for human, vet, and food pathogens, as well as food speciation testing
The genesig Real-Time PCR Kit product range includes tests for a massive range of applications:
• Human Infectious Disease Screening
• Veterinary Diagnostics
• Food and Water testing
• Biothreat Detection
genesig q32 – Cutting edge design and technology
Assembled from just a few building blocks the robust genesig q32 system is easy to transport and install. Up to 32 samples can be run in 0.1 ml tubes or 8-strip format. Fast heating and cooling is achieved by utilizing robust Peltier elements, whilst assay performance is supported further by a heated lid design. Excitation is provided by high intensity LEDs filtered to provide light at 500nm that is capable of exciting all fluorophores commonly used in qPCR. A prism is used to generate spectra from fluorescent emissions. These spectra are imaged using a CMOS camera.
genesig q32 software
The genesig q32 software is delivered and easily installed from a USB flash drive. When installed in a network, the software can control several q32 instruments connected via LAN. The powerful and easy to use software provides the following features:
