Promega, a provider of nucleic acid purification systems, has extended its range of RNA purification methods with the introduction of the novel PureYieldRNA Midiprep system
This new RNA purification system uses a unique clearing agent which selectively removes all detectable genomic DNA prior to RNA isolation.
When surveyed 81% of testers said that they would switch to the PureYieldRNA Midiprep system and 95% would recommend it to a colleague.
Commonly used methods result in RNA contaminated with genomic DNA which interferes with sensitive techniques such as qRT-PCR and microarray analysis.
The PureYieldRNA Midiprep system allows researchers to move directly from RNA purification to sensitive downstream applications without the need for expensive and time-consuming DNase treatments, alcohol precipitations or hazardous compounds like phenol and other organic solvents.
The simple and flexible PureYield RNA purification kit is available in a 10 prep and 50 prep format and provides a single system for high quality-high yield total RNA purification from a range of samples, including cultured cells, bacteria, yeast, plant, blood and mammalian solid tissue, yielding up to 1mg of pure total RNA in 90 minutes using either a vacuum or centrifugation protocol.
