dsRNA GoStix Plus
dsRNA GoStix Plus provide a rapid, simple, and effective method for instantly quantifying double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) in an in vitro transcription (IVT) reaction for mRNA synthesis. The test involves applying 20 µl of supernatant to a GoStix cassette and waiting 10 minutes for the appearance of bands that indicate the presence of dsRNA. Results from dsRNA GoStix Plus can be analyzed with a free smartphone app, which quantifies dsRNA amount by comparing the band intensities. The quantitative output from the dsRNA GoStix App (referred to as a GoStix Value, or GV) can be used to compare dsRNA amounts between different preparations in a manner similar to, but far easier and quicker than, an ELISA, and allows for calculation of actual ng/ml using a reference sample. By enabling quick and easy dsRNA quantitation, dsRNA GoStix Plus allow you to minimize variability and achieve consistent performance for your experiments.
