RNAzol® RT RNA Isolation Reagent
Powered by Bioz
Introduction
RNAzol®RT is the most effective reagent for isolation of total RNA and small RNA from samples of various origins, including human, animal, plant, bacterial and viral origin.
RNAzol®RT separates RNA from other molecules in a single-step based on the interaction of phenol and guanidine with cellular components. No chloroform-induced phase separation is necessary to obtain pure RNA. It isolates mRNA and microRNA in separate fractions. Alternatively, total RNA containing all classes of RNA in a single fraction can be isolated. In addition, the patented reagent allows for the sequential isolation of RNA and DNA.
Advantages
Higher yield and quality
- Isolate pure and undegraded RNA that is ready for RT-PCR without DNase treatment
- Provides higher yield and quality of isolated RNA than previous reagents
Easy isolation of mRNA, microRNA or total RNA
- Isolate mRNA and microRNA in separate fractions
- Isolate total RNA in one fraction
Fast and convenient
- The isolation procedure can be completed in less than one hour
- No chloroform-induced phase separation is necessary
- Stable at room temperature for both storage and experimental procedure
