NucleoSpin RNA/DNA Buffer Set—parallel isolation of RNA and DNA from undivided samples
The NucleoSpin RNA/DNA Buffer Set enables parallel isolation of high-quality RNA and DNA from the same sample in one working procedure and is designed for use with a wide array of Macherey-Nagel RNA purification kits. This approach eliminates the need to split samples and perform separate RNA and DNA preps, which can be problematic or impossible for analyses involving precious samples such as biopsies or small individual organisms and can give rise to experimental artifacts.
The NucleoSpin RNA/DNA Buffer Set enables parallel isolation of high-quality RNA and DNA from the same sample in one working procedure and is designed for use with a wide array of Macherey-Nagel RNA purification kits. This approach eliminates the need to split samples and perform separate RNA and DNA preps, which can be problematic or impossible for analyses involving precious samples such as biopsies or small individual organisms and can give rise to experimental artifacts. The ability to isolate both RNA and DNA from precious samples can enable an array of different experimental applications, including investigation of the relationship between genetic variation and differences in gene expression.
The approach employed by the NucleoSpin RNA/DNA Buffer Set involves sequential elution of DNA and RNA from a single silica-based spin column using low-salt buffer and water, respectively, such that eluted DNA and RNA are ready for immediate use in common downstream applications such as PCR, qPCR, restriction digests, microarray analysis, etc.
Overview
- Designed for use in combination with NucleoSpin RNA, NucleoSpin RNA XS, NucleoSpin miRNA, NucleoSpin RNA Blood, NucleoSpin RNA Plant, and NucleoSpin RNA/Protein kits
- No need to split samples (e.g., precious, indivisible samples such as biopsy material)
- High-quality DNA and RNA from one sample; perfect for PCR, qPCR, restriction digests, microarray analysis, etc.
- Fast procedure
