Overview
Isolation of exosomal RNA molecules from urine samples
Rapid and convenient spin-column protocol
Isolate inhibitor-free urinary microRNA for most downstream applications, including Small RNA Sequencing. Find out more information on Norgen’s NGS services
Optional protocol for purification of exosomal proteins for western blot analysis
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.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All buffers should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 2 years after the date of shipment.
Optimized for low input RNA, especially from bodily fluids such as plasma or serum at 1ng of RNA
Simple and quick workflow: library could be prepared in less than 5 hours
No gel purification for selected types of samples
Protocol optimized for RNA isolated from different types of input, including liquid biopsies (blood, plasma, serum and urine)
Complements Norgen’s Best-in-Class Total RNA (including microRNA) Purification Technology
The Small RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina consists of all the reagents and components required to generate small RNA libraries to be used for next-generation sequencing on an Illumina platform. All molecular reagents including adaptors, primers, enzyme mixes and buffers are provided. A purification module is also provided for rapid purification of nucleic acid products generated at various steps of the workflow. The purification module utilizes Norgen’s patent resin technology which enhances recovery of desired library intermediates or final products. The library prep workflow could be used for different forms of input including purified total RNA or enriched small RNA, as well as RNA from low content inputs such as plasma, serum and urine.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability Some components require storage at -20°C, 4°C or room temperature. See individual components and box labels for storage conditions.

Dde Biotin-PEG4-alkyne is useful for introducing a biotin moiety to azide-containing molecules using Cu(I)-catalyzed Click Chemistry. The hydrophilic spacer arm provides better solubility to the labeled molecules in aqueous media. Dde protecting group allows efficient release of captured biotinylated molecules from streptavidin under mild conditions with hydrazine. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.
