Protocol tips

Upstream tips
- This kit can be used for the isolation of RNA from up to 5x10^5 cells, or up to 5 mg of tissue.
Downstream tips
- Always blank the spectrophotometer with your elution buffer.

- When measuring 260 nm absorbance, a unit of 1 on this scale equals to 40 ng of RNA.

Publication protocol

Pancreatic tissues were perfused with 1 ml RNA-later as the RNA stabilization reagent (Qiagen, USA) by an insulin syringe. Tissues were subsequently cut into small pieces with sterile scissors. The tubes that contained pancreatic tissue and RNA-later were processed for extraction by using the RNX-plus solution, TriPure, and RNeasy Micro Kits (Qiagen, USA) according to the manufacturers’ instructions after either 30 min, overnight in 4ºC, or following storage at -80ºC for one, three or seven days in order to compare the effect of preservation time on RNA integrity. In all conditions, the livers were removed from 30 rats and used as control tissue in a comparison of RNA quality between pancreatic and liver RNAs.

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?
