Introduction

This kit is suitable for high-throughput extraction of total RNA from paraffin embedded tissue samples, including miRNA. The kit is based on superparamagnetic magnetic particle purification technology. The extraction process does not require the use of toxic phenolic chloroform extraction or time-consuming alcohol precipitation.The whole extraction process only takes 120 minutes. The obtained RNA can be directly used in RT-PCR. The high-throughput extraction can be realized by 96 hole magnetic frame and 96 holeo scillator, various nucleic acid extractors (such as KingFisherFle, MagMix32, MagMix 96) or cooperating with the pipette workstation (Hamilton, Tican) for automatic extraction.

Principle

This product is based on the purification method of high binding magnetic particles. The sample is lysed and digested under the action of lysate and Protease. DNA is released into the lysate. After adding magnetic particles and binding solution, DNA will be adsorbed on the surface of magnetic particles, and impurities such as proteins will be removed without adsorption. The adsorbed particles were washed with washing solution to remove proteins and impurities, washed with ethanol to remove salts, and finally DNA was eluted by Elution Buffer.

Advantages

• Fast – several samples can be extracted in 120 minutes by column method
• Safe – no phenol chloroform extraction required

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K and MagBind Particles should be stored at 2–8°C upon arrival. DNase I should bestored at -20°C. However, short-term storage (DNase I up to 1 weeks, Proteinase K and MagBind Particles up to 8 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 theseconditions.

Norovirus is a single-stranded, non-enveloped RNA virus belonging to the Caliciviridae family. Norovirus is considered the major causative agent of non-bacterial gastroenteritis in the world. The main channel of transmittance is via contaminated food or water, as well as human-to-human contact. Most Noroviruses infecting humans belong to genogroup I and II (particularly genotype 4). Norovirus is very stable in the environment and is resistant to some surface disinfectants such as alcohols and detergents. Moreover, it is very difficult to culture Norovirus in vitro, making its identification by standard microbiological assays challenging.
