Protocol tips

Protocol tips
- For RNA to dissolve better and to yeild high levels, preheat elution buffer at 95C.

- Addition of β-mercaptoethanol in lysis buffer can be skipped because the phenol will do the job of nuclease inactivation

- To capture more amount of mRNA, modify the amount of lysis buffer :ethanol (from 1:1 to 1:1.5) during the binding step
Downstream tips
- Do vortex for 2-plus minutes during Acid-Phenol:Chloroform extraction step. This will facilitate the removal of tightly bound proteins typically associated with RNA

Publication protocol

Total RNA was extracted using the mirVana miRNA Isolation Kit from ThermoFisher Scientific, Inc. (Waltham, MA, USA) according to the recommended procedure. The quantity of RNA yield was determined with NanoDrop from ThermoFisher Scientific, Inc., and the quality was assessed using the RNA 6000 Nano Kit with Bioanalyzer 2100 from Agilent Technologies (Santa Clara, CA, USA). A total of 21 samples was used in this study, including 7 CB, 7 cornea, and 7 TM samples.

RNA isolation from tissue

How do I extract RNA from animal tissue without using liquid nitrogen? I tried the RNA extraction by using the TRIzol reagent and I homogenize the tissue using polytron homogenizer at room temperature for 30secs is this correct?

Problem in phase separation after using serum/plasma kit

I used a serum/plasma kit for my serum samples. After the phase separation the samples should have 3 phases: a colourless aqueous phase, a white interphase and a red organic phase. However, in some of my samples there was no aqueous phase unless I wait for an extended period of time. How can I circumvent this problem?
