Quick-RNA MagBead
R2132 / R2133
Highlights
- Versatile: High-throughput, magnetic bead-based isolation total RNA (including small/micro RNAs) from any sample including cells, solid tissue, whole blood, biological liquids, FFPE tissue, environmental (plant/seed), swabs (stool, soil, microbial samples), etc.
- NGS-Ready: High-quality RNA is ready for any downstream application. DNase I included.
Description
| Binding Capacity | 15 µg total RNA per 30 µl MagBinding Beads. |
|---|---|
| Equipment Needed | Magnetic stand or separator, heat block, liquid handler or robotic sample processor (user provided). |
| Purity | High-quality RNA is ready for Next-Gen Sequencing, RT/PCR, hybridization, etc. |
| Recommended Materials | (available separately) – 96-well Collection Plate (C2002; capacity is up to 1.2 ml/well), 96-Well Block (P1001; capacity is up to 2 ml/well), 96-well Elution Plate (C2003), Cover Foil (C2007), ZR-96 MagStand (P1005). |
| Sample Preservation | DNA/RNA Shield lyses cells, inactivates nucleases and infectious agents and is ideal for safe sample storage and transport at ambient temperatures (page 7). |
| Sample Sources | Any cells, solid tissue, whole blood, biological fluids, FFPE tissue, environmental (plant/seed), swabs (stool, soil, microbial samples), samples stored in DNA/RNA Shield, etc. |
| Size Limits | Total RNA including small/microRNAs ≥ 17nt. |
| Storage | RNA eluted with DNase/RNase-Free Water (provided) can be stored frozen. The addition of RNase inhibitors is highly recommended for prolonged storage. |

| Spleen | 30-50 µg |
| Liver | 40-60 µg |
| Low Yield Tissue (mouse) | ≤ 30 µg (per 10 mg) |
| Brain, Heart | 5-15 µg |
| Muscle | 5-20 µg |
| Lung | 10-20 µg |
| Intestine | 10-30 µg |
| Kidney | 20-30 µg |
| Whole Blood | (per 1 ml) |
| Porcine | 10-20 µg |
| Human | 2-10 µg |
Q2: How to improve purity, RIN scores and eliminate contamination (i.e., A260/230, A260/280 ratios, DNA, phenol, protein, salt, etc.)?
Purity, RIN and/or any type of contamination can result from initial sample preparation (i.e., inefficient lysis of the sample). To improve, increase the volume of the lysis reagent (e.g., TRI Reagent/TRIzol or RNA Lysis Buffer).
Q3: How to improve RNA yield?
- To ensure complete lysis, increase the volume of the lysis reagent (i.e., increase or titrate the volume of TRI Reagent/TRIzol or RNA Lysis Buffer). Lysate should be clear (not opaque or viscous). Pellet debris by centrifugation (if needed) and process the cleared supernatant.
- Prior to adding TRI Reagent/TRIzol or RNA Lysis Buffer, perform enzymatic treatment (Proteinase K; #D3001-2-20) and/or mechanical homogenization (bead beating with ZR BashingBead Lysis Tubes; #S6003) in DNA/RNA Shield (#R1100).
Q4: Can I still use DNA/RNA Shield if a precipitate has formed?
This can happen on occasion due to transport or storage at lower temperatures. The reagent functionality is not affected; however, the precipitate can be resolved by heating the reagent to >37 °C.
