RNAstable® is a novel preservation product developed to protect RNA from degradation during storage or shipment at ambient temperatures. The synthetic storage medium is based on the natural principles of anhydrobiosis (meaning “life without water”), a biological mechanism employed by
DNA, RNA, cDNA derived from ECACC mammalian cell lines allow screening for genes or expression patterns to identify lines most suitable for specific research.
The Extract-N-Amp Blood PCR Kits contain all the reagents needed to rapidly extract and amplify human genomic DNA from whole blood, whole blood dried on a blood card, and cultured mammalian cells.
Affinity chromatography is the process of bioselective adsorption and subsequent recovery of a compound from an immobilized ligand. This process allows for the highly specific and efficient purification of many diverse proteins and other compounds. The process requires
The Extract-N-Amp™ kits are designed to rapidly extract and amplify genomic DNA. The plant tissue version of these kits has been optimized to amplify without concern over plant inhibitors. This technical document will discuss the versions of this kit that
The High Pure and silica adsorption kits developed by Roche depend on the tendency of nucleic acids to adsorb to silica (glass) in the presence of a chaotropic salt such as sodium iodide (NaI), guanidine thiocyanate or guanidine hydrochloride [Melzak
This article describes the evaluation of Whatman FTA cards from Cytiva for their ability to collect, store, and isolate high-quality RNA from a variety of crude biological samples.
Impact of Purification Method on Accuracy of DNA Quantitation and Downstream Enzymatic Processes. Evaluation of the purity of genomic DNA by UV spectrophotometry, gel electrophoresis, and downstream qPCR using GenElute™-E DNA purification kits.
An overview of methods for quantifying DNA and RNA, how to measure DNA and RNA concentration and yield, and how to assess purity of nucleic acid samples.
Sera-Mag and Sera-Mag SpeedBeads provide cost effective magnetic bead separation technology for molecular biology applications, nucleic acid isolation, and research immunoassays.
Extract-N-Amp is a versatile, combined DNA extraction and amplification kit intended to simplify the generation of PCR products from a range of sample types. This methodology can be used without modification to perform PCR on blood samples stored on FTA
Standard methods for extracting DNA from tissues can be extremely laborious and time consuming. Certain applications, such as genotyping of transgenic mice using a section of tail, employ a lengthy DNA extraction process.
This page discusses methods for plasmid DNA purification and the factors impacting resulting DNA purity and yield using illustra plasmidPrep Kits from Cytiva.
