| Application | TRI Reagent is an improved version of the single-step total RNA isolation reagent developed by Chomczynski.1 The RNA isolation method based on this reagent is widely used and proven for RNA applications2. It is ideal for quick, economical, and efficient isolation of total RNA or the simultaneous isolation of RNA, DNA, and proteins from samples of human, animal, plant, yeast, bacterial, and viral origin. |
| Features and Benefits | • Quick and convenient reagent for use in the simultaneous isolation of RNA, DNA and protein. • Performs well with large or small amounts of tissue or cells and many samples can be simultaneously extracted. • One of the most effective methods for isolating total RNA. Purifications can be completed in only one hour starting with fresh tissue or cells. |
