Promega has announced the launch of the QuantiFluor RNA system developed for quantitation of RNA
The QuantiFluor RNA dye enables quantitation of as little as 100pg of RNA in solution; a critical step in many biological applications, particularly in standard molecular biology techniques.
The new system claims to provide increased sensitivity for samples that are low in concentration, using less template RNA to quantitate compared with alternative systems.
The system can be set up on numerous platforms including both the QuantiFluor and GloMax Multi instruments.
Applications include measuring yields of in vitro transcribed RNA, measuring RNA concentrations before performing Northern blot analysis, S1 nuclease assays, RNase protection assays, cDNA library preparation, RT-PCR, and differential display PC.
The dye system is the latest addition to Promega's nucleic acid quantitation dyes, which also includes QuantiFluor dsDNA System.
