Overview

• Extract total RNA (including microRNA) from FFPE samples
• No phenol extraction step
• Includes DNase for optional on-column DNA removal
• Isolated RNA is of the highest quality and integrity
• Isolate a diversity of RNA species
• Purified RNA is suitable for a variety of downstream applications, including Small RNA Sequencing. Find out more information on Norgen’s NGS services
• Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix

Norgen’s FFPE RNA Purification Kits provide a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total RNA (including microRNA) from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples in as little as 1 hour. Using formalin to fix tissues leads to crosslinking of the RNA and proteins, and the process of embedding the tissue samples can also lead to fragmentation of the RNA over time. Norgen’s FFPE RNA Purification Kits provide conditions that allow for the partial reversing of the formalin modifications, resulting in a high quality and yield of RNA. These kits are able to purify all sizes of RNA, from large mRNA and ribosomal RNA down to microRNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA), depending on the age of the FFPE tissue as fragmentation of the RNA is known to occur over time. The RNA is preferentially purified from other cellular components without the use of phenol or chloroform.

FFPE RNA Purification Kit (Spin Column)

Maximum loading volume of 650 μL per column, and a maximum binding capacity of 50 μg per column.

FFPE RNA Purification 96-Well Kit (High Throughput)

Purification is based on 96-well column chromatography using Norgen’s proprietary resin as the separation matrix. Purification can be performed using either a vacuum manifold or centrifugation. Maximum loading volume of 400 μL per well, and a maximum binding capacity of 50 μg per well.

Overview

Thin polyester heat sealing film which is easily pierceable with autosampler needles/ABI^® 3730. The seal is suitable for PCR, qPCR and optical applications.

• Heat sealing offers a 100% effective method for plate sealing for a complete seal integrity, as well as being quick and cost effective
• Our ClearASeal Pierce heat sealing film is an optically clear polyester backed film, forming a pierceable seal to polypropylene, polyethylene, polystyrene and cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) plates
• The optical clarity of this seal enables its use for sealing plates required for imaging use, including fluorescent detection methods such as qPCR and colorimetric assays
• Its pierceability renders it useful for automation and for use on needle, capillary and tip based liquid handling systems
• It is effective on the ABI^®3730 capillary sequencer, removing the need for the use of expensive septa mats
• The ClearASeal Pierce forms a complete seal to a plate enabling moderately low and high temperature uses, including PCR when using a pressurized heated lid thermal cycler
• It demonstrates a moderate solvent resistance and can be utilized for short term compound storage
• This seal is available as sheets, for use with manual and semi-automated sealers, such as our HeatASeal 500 Sealing Machine
• Also available in multiple roll formats compatible with specified automated heat sealers, such as our Wasp or Chameleon XT

Introduction

HiPure Insect DNA Kits provides a simple and rapid solution for total DNA extraction of insect tissue samples. This kit is based on silica gel column purification technology without toxic phenol chloroform extraction and time-consuming alcohol precipitation. The whole extraction process only takes 30 minutes. HiPure Insect DNA Kit can process tissue samples less than 10mg at a time. Hipure Insect DNA 96 kit can process 96 insect tissue samples at a high throughput. The obtained DNA can be directly used in PCR, Southern blot, viral DNA detection and other experiments.

Principles

This product is based on silica column purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate and protease, DNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption column. Nucleic acid is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, Nucleic acid was finally eluted with low-salt buffer (10mm Tris, pH9.0, 0.5mm EDTA).

Advantages

• High purity DNA – can be used in sensitive downstream applications such as multiplex and quantitative pcr
• Fast – several samples can be extracted in less than 30 minutes
• Good repeatability – suitable for extracting high-yield DNA from insect tissue samples
• Safe – without phenol chloroform extraction and alcohol precipitation

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12 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 these conditions. The entire kit can be stored at 2–8°C, but in thiscase buffers should be redissolved before use. Make sure that all buffers areat room temperature when used.
