ArrayGrade™ Total RNA Isolation Kit Enough reagents for 12 total RNA preparations
 
Description
The ArrayGrade RNA Isolation Kit is designed to extract total RNA from small quantities of biological source material. This kit is designed to prepare of up to 100 μg of total RNA from either cultured animal cells or, in combination with a phenol/chloroform extraction method, from animal tissues. The special silica membrane Spin Column technology used in the kit makes the procedure fast and easy to perform with less than 15 minutes hands-on-time at room temperature. The lysis buffer, with its chaotropic components, stabilizes and prevents degradation of the RNA and allows optimal retention of the RNA on the spin column. The Washing Buffer removes salts, metabolites, and macromolecular cellular components. Low ionic strength conditions elute pure RNA from the column for labeled target synthesis and microarray-based gene expression analysis.

Brief Protocol: For Experienced Users
First time users, please refer to the complete protocol in the TrueLabeling-AMP 2.0 User Manual.
  1. Add 350 μl of Lysis & Binding Buffer (G6) to cell pellet or to ground tissue in a 1.5-ml RNase-free tube. Add to filter column and centrifuge for 1 min at 11,000 x g.
  2. Discard the filter column. Add 350 μl of ethanol (70%) to filtrate and mix.
  3. Load entire volume (700 μl) onto spin column. Centrifuge for 30 s at 8,000 x g.
  4. Add 350 μl of Desalting Buffer (G15) onto spin column; centrifuge again for 60 s at 11,000 x g.
  5. Add 200 μl of Pre-Wash Buffer (G16) onto spin column; centrifuge again for 30 s at 8,000 x g.
  6. Add 350 μl of Washing Buffer (G17+ethanol) onto spin column; centrifuge again for 30 s at 8,000 x g.
  7. Add 200 μl of Washing Buffer (G17+ethanol) onto spin column; centrifuge again for 3 min at 11,000 x g.
  8. Add 50 μl of RNase-free H2O to the spin column. Incubate at room temperature for 1 min. Centrifuge for ~ 1 min at 11,000 x g. Make sure that all of the wash passes through the filter. Repeat spin if necessary.
  9. Store RNA at -20 ºC for two to four days or at -80 ºC for up to six months.
