RNA isolation / purification Bacteria - Gram positive Staphylococcus saprophycitius

The biggest problem in isolating RNA from gram-positive bacteria is the disruption of the cell wall. A lot of protocols employ enzymatic digestion (pretreatment) which may affect gene expression patterns of certain genes. Therefore physical disruption using beads can be a best alternative.

mirVana™ miRNA Isolation Kit, with phenol

Thermo Fisher Scientific

Upstream tips	Protocol tips	Downstream tips
	For RNA to dissolve better and to yield 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 a higher amount of mRNA, modify the amount of lysis buffer :ethanol (from 1:1 to 1:1.5) during the binding step. Do vortex for 2-plus minutes. This will facilitate the removal of tightly bound proteins typically associated with RNA.

SV Total RNA Isolation System

Promega

Upstream tips	Protocol tips	Downstream tips
	Total RNA was isolated from frozen tissue using the Promega Total RNA Isolation System (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). For cDNA synthesis, 4–8 μg of total RNA was reverse transcribed with Superscript III reverse transcriptase using an oligo-(dT)12–18 primer according to the supplier’s protocol (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). A single cDNA preparation from each specimen was used for the assay of all antimicrobial products tested.
