Toensure efficient gDNA removal when doing an on-column digest using the RNase-Free DNase Set in combination with RNeasy Minithe following factors are crucial: RNeasy technology simplifies total RNA isolation (see table “Amount of starting material for RNeasy procedures”). Samples are first lysed and then homogenized. Ethanol is added to the lysate to provide ideal binding conditions. The lysate is then loaded onto the RNeasy silica membrane and RNA binds to the silica membrane, and all contaminants are efficiently washed away. For certain RNA applications that are sensitive to very small amounts of DNA, the residual amounts of DNA remaining can be removed using a convenient on-column DNase treatment. Pure, concentrated RNA is eluted in water. A variety of special application protocols is also available. Low yields of plasmid DNAcan be caused by a number of different factors. The most common causes for low yield are poor culturing conditions and plasmid propagation, excessive amounts of starting material resulting in insufficient bacterial celllysis and column overloading. When working with the anion-exchange based QIAGEN Plasmid Purification Kits, extra care is required during the isopropanol precipitation step, as the glassy DNA pellet may be difficult to see, and tends to be only loosely attached to the side of the tube. The customer is responsible for unloading and transporting large and/or heavy items from delivery vans and for supervising the unloading of all other products delivered.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

These terms and conditions cover all sales of products and services by VWR International Ltd (VWR) in the United Kingdom and any information and advice given whether charged for or not, unless otherwise agreed by VWR in writing. These terms and conditions apply to the exclusion of any other terms submitted by the customer or which are implied by any trade, custom, practice or course of dealing. Customer Accounts strictly follow the protocol for on-column DNase Digestion in Appendix D of the RNeasy Mini Handbook (you can let wash buffer RW1 incubate on the column for 3-5 minutesbefore centrifuging to enhance removal of excess gDNA prior to applying the enzyme)

Optionally, repeat the elution step, and incubate the spin column on the bench for 10 minutes with RNase-free water before centrifuging.

The customer is required to ensure that the use of any products supplied by VWR does not infringe the intellectual property rights of any third party and the customer shall indemnify VWR against any claims made against VWR by any third party in relation to any such infringement or alleged infringement.

All intellectual property rights arising out of or in connection with the services shall be owned by VWR. Termination Violate any applicable laws or regulations or violate any code of conduct or other guidelines which may be applicable for any particular Community Feature . The concentration of RNA isolatedwith RNeasy Kits can be determined by measuring the absorbance at 260 nm (A260) in a spectrophotometer. Absorbance readings should be greater than 0.15 to ensure significance. An absorbance of 1 unit at 260 nm corresponds to 40 µg of RNA per ml (A260 = 1 = 40 µg/ml). This relationship is valid for measurements in water. Therefore, dilute RNA in waterto quantify it spectrophotometrically. Dilute the sample 10x by adding cold PBS. Pellet cells by centrifugation.Caution: Cells might lyse. Authorisation for the return of products which fail to meet current published manufacturer’s specifications must be requested in writing within 28 days of delivery. VWR will assist customers, at customers’ expense, to obtain any manufacturer’s warranty consistent with that granted to VWR.QIAamp DNA Blood Kits yield DNA sized from 200 bp to 50 kb, depending on the age and storage of samples (see figure " Apoptotic banding in stored blood"). The purified DNA is suitable for long-range PCR amplification (see figure " Long-range PCR") and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis used, for example, for paternity testing (see figure " Paternity testing by RFLP analysis").

Ribonucleases are the principal threat to any RNA isolation procedure. In addition, copurification of inhibitory contaminants is a major problem when isolating RNA from certain tissue sources. To minimize the threat, gloves should be worn at all times, and special care must be taken to use RNase-free reagents and labware. Advertise or offer to sell or buy any goods or services for any business purpose, unless such Community Feature specifically allows such messages.

Tissue-Tek O.C.T. is an embedding compound for cryosectioning, which is soluble in water. It mainly consists of glycols and synthetic resins. Tissue-Tek O.C.T. is used as matrix for cryosectioning of tissues. Using the O.C.T. the tissue samples can be positioned more easily in the microtome and have better qualities during sectioning. The dedicated RNeasy Mini QIAcube Kit, including rotor adapters preloaded with RNeasy spin columns and elution tubes, delivers greater convenience and time savings (see figure "Significant time savings with dedicated QIAcube Kits"). Nothing in this contract shall limit or exclude VWR’s liability for death or personal injury caused by its negligence, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other matter in respect of which it would be unlawful for VWR to exclude or restrict liability. Subject to this, in view of the responsibilities of the customer set out in the above paragraphs: In addition, tissue/cell lysis steps are typically carried out with lysis buffers containing guanidine isothiocyanate, a potent protein denaturant. It is very important to use a sufficient amount of lysis buffer during RNA isolation. We recommend using at least 10x volume of lysis buffer to tissue/cell pellet. The PureYield™ Plasmid Maxiprep System purifies up to 1mg of transfection-quality plasmid DNA from 250ml bacterial cultures in under an hour. The system is designed for use with a vacuum source and vacuum manifold, greatly reducing the time spent on purification compared to silica resin or other membrane-based methods.
