Quantify RNA of a wide spectrum of concentrations, including the lower ng per µL and pg per µL range
Compatible with any Real-Time PCR system
RNA is accurately quantified using a standard curve constructed from the provided RNA standard
Norgen’s Low Abundance RNA Quantification Kit offers a PCR-based detection procedure to quantify RNA of a wide spectrum of concentrations, including the lower ng per µL and pg per µL range. The kit has two main enzymatic components – reverse transcription using Norgen’s microScript Reverse Transcription system and PCR Master Mix used in conjunction with a specially formulized primer mixture, to amplify human RNA from different types of inputs (such as various liquid biopsies). The kit is compatible with any Real-Time PCR system with the addition of fluorescent nucleic acid stains such as SYBR Green. The unknown RNA is accurately quantified by using a standard curve constructed from the provided RNA Standard.
Storage Conditions Upon receipt, store Norgen’s Low Abundance RNA Quantification Kit at -20°C or lower. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. If needed, prepare smaller working aliquots and store at -20°C or lower.
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
These kits provides a rapid method for the purification of total RNA from non-preserved saliva and nasal/throat swabs, and from preserved saliva collected on Norgen’s Saliva RNA Collection and Preservation Devices Dx (Cat. 53800) or preserved swabs collected in Norgen’s Total Nucleic Acid Preservative Tubes Dx (Cat. Dx69200). Purification is based on using Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix. RNA is preferentially purified from other cellular components such as proteins, without the use of phenol or chloroform. The chemistry employed in the kit allows the purification of total RNA, including viral and bacterial RNA, irrespective of size or GC content. The purified RNA is ideal for in vitro diagnostic use for medical purposes.
Saliva/Swab RNA Purification Kit Dx (Spin Column)
This kit is optimized to be used with any downstream application employing enzymatic amplification or other enzymatic modifications of RNA followed by signal detection or amplification. Any diagnostic results generated using the RNA isolated with Norgen’s Saliva / Swab RNA Purification Kit Dx in conjunction with an in vitro diagnostic assay should be interpreted with regard to other clinical or laboratory findings.
To minimize irregularities in diagnostic results, suitable controls for downstream applications should be used.
Norgen’s Saliva/Swab RNA Purification Kit Dx is intended for use by professional users such as technicians, physicians and biologists experienced and trained in molecular biological techniques.
Norgen’s Saliva/Swab RNA Purification Kit Dx does not provide a diagnostic result. It is the sole responsibility of the user to use and validate the kit in conjunction with a downstream in vitro diagnostic assay.

Produced by reverse osmosis, ion-exchange, electro-deionization, ultrafiltration, UV treatment (UVC & 185 nm), 0.1 μm membrane filtration
Nuclease-free, protease-free, endotoxin-free
Suitable for molecular biology applications (qPCR, NGS etc.)
Suitable for cell culture applications
Produced in an ISO certified GMP laboratory
Water system is routinely monitored for compliance with QC standards
The Norgen water purification system has been designed in conjunction with experts from Millipore Sigma. The Ultrapure NFW is purified in a two-stage process. The first stage, to produce type II water, includes pre-treatment with activated charcoal and polyphosphate, this water then undergoes reverse osmosis, electro-deionization and ion exchange to remove contaminants as well as UV treatment for disinfection. The Pure water then flows to a second system in a clean room with an additional 4 layers of purification. After passing through an additional ion exchange column, the water is then subjected to Ultrafiltration to remove particulates, bacteria, & ionic contaminants down to trace level, the water is then treated with UV light (182 nm wavelength) to break down organic matter. Lastly a second Ultrafilter for the production of pyrogen-, nuclease- and bacteria-free water at 18.2 MΩ. This water is of utmost purity and suitable for direct use in molecular biology applications such as qPCR and NGS, as well as cell culture and other applications.

Precautions and Disclaimers This product is designed for research purposes only. It is not intended for human or diagnostic use.
Actin is part of the cytoskeletal system of all cell types. Smooth Muscle Actin is found in myofibroblasts and myoepithelium, but not in cardiac and skeletal muscles. Labelling of smooth muscle actin in concert with muscle specific actin staining can allow for differentiation between rhabdomyosarcoma and leiomyosarcoma, as Muscle specific actin is found in rhabdomyoblasts, while smooth muscle actin is found in leiomyosarcomas.
