Overview
The E.Z.N.A.® HP Total RNA Isolation Kit provides a rapid and easy method for RNA isolation from cultured cells or tissues. The kit includes RNA Homogenizer columns that integrate sample homogenization and genomic DNA elimination into one single step. The RNA purification process is simplified with HiBind® Mini Column technology and can be accomplished in 25 minutes. This convenient spin-column format requires no phenol or chloroform, avoids time-consuming steps such as CsCl gradient ultracentrifugation, precipitation with isopropanol or LiCl and allows for multiple samples to be processed in parallel. RNA purified using the E.Z.N.A.® HP Total RNA method is ready for applications such as RT-PCR, RT-qPCR, Northern blotting, next-generation sequencing, poly A+ RNA (mRNA) purification, nuclease protection, and in vitro translation.
- Rapid – RNA isolation in 25 minutes
- Versatile – Spin and vacuum formats available
- Specialized System – Sample Homogenization and gDNA elimination in one step
- Safe – No phenol/chloroform extractions
- High-quality – RNA is suitable for a variety of downstream applications
