GenElute™ FFPE RNA Purification Kit RNB400-50RXN

NACRES:

NA.52

Sigmas GenElute™ FFPE RNA Purification Kit provides a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total RNA (including microRNA) from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples. Using formalin to fix tissues leads to crosslinking of the RNA and proteins, and the process of embedding the tissue samples can also lead to fragmentation of the RNA over time. Sigmas GenElute™ FFPE RNA Purification Kit provides conditions that allow for the partial reversing of the formalin modifications, resulting in a high quality and yield of RNA. The kit is able to purify all sizes of RNA, from large mRNA and ribosomal RNA down to microRNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA), depending on the age of the FFPE tissue as the degree of fragmentation of the RNA will increase over time. The RNA is preferentially purified from other cellular components without the use of phenol or chloroform. The purified RNA is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including qRT-PCR, reverse transcription PCR, primer extension, expression array assays, and microarray analyses.

• Extract total RNA (including microRNA) from FFPE samples
• No phenol extraction step
• Includes DNase for optional on-column DNA removal
• Isolated RNA is of the highest quality and integrity
