FavorPrep™ Tri-RNAReagent is a reagent from the improved phenol
and guanidine isothiocyanate (GSN) method for the single-step RNA
isolation. During sample homogenization or lysis, Tri-RNA reagent
maintains the integrity of the RNA, while disrupting cells and
dissolving cell components. The composition of Tri-RNA reagent
includes phenol and GSN in a mono-phase solution. A biological
sample is homogenized or lysed in Tri-RNA reagent and homogenate
is separated into the aqueous and organic phases by chloroform
addition, vortexing,a nd centrifugation. RNA remains exclusively in
the aqueous phase (clear upper phase), DNA in the interphase, and
proteins remain in the organic phase (red color). RNA is precipitated
from aqueous phase by addition of isopropanol and
solubilized/concentrated. If needed, DNA and proteins can be
sequentially precipitated from the interphase and organic phase with
ethanol and isopropanol respectively, and solubilized/concentrated.
Features
★ Single-step for the isolation of total RNA from tissues, cells,
bacteria, plants, yeasts and biological fluids
★ The entire procedure for total RNA isolation is less than 1
hour.
★ The purified RNA can be applied in : RT-PCR, Northern
hybridlation, RNase protection, Poly-A+RNA selection,
Differential display, and Micro-array assay.
Applications
★ For 100 applications
Storage:
At 4℃ in the brown glass bottle for routine us
Procedure:
1. Add 1 ml of Tri-RNA Reagent to 100 mg tissue (or
precipitated blood RNA viruses from up to 10 ml of blood or
106cultured cells, or 10 cm2
of culture plate)
2. Homogenize tissue samples in Tri-RNA Reagent using a
glass-Teflon or Polytron homogenizer (cultured cells can be
lysed by repetitive pipetting; concentrated blood RNA
viruses can be lysed by vigorous vortexing).
3. Leave the homogenates for 5 minutes at room temperature.
4. Add 0.2 ml of chloroform (not provided) and mix vigorously.
5. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 3 minutes to separate the phases,
RNA is in the clear upper aqueous phase.
6. Transfer the RNA phase to a clean tube.
7. RNA is precipitated by adding 1x volume of isopropanol,
vortex, leave at room temperature for 10 minutes, and then
centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 15 minutes.
8. Remove the supernatant.
9. Wash the RNA pellet with 0.5 ml ice cold 70% ethanol,
centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, and carefully remove
the supernatant.
10. A brief spin to make sure the RNA pellet is precipitated to
the designated side wall of the tube and then carefully
remove any residue supernatant without touching the RNA
pellet.
11. Resuspend the RNA in a small volume of TE, pH8.0
