FAQ-1579
Can the AllPrep DNA/RNA/Protein Mini Kit be used with fibrous or lipid tissues?
The AllPrep DNA/RNA/Protein Mini Kit is optimized for use with easy-to-lyse tissues. For fibrous (e.g., heart) and lipid tissues (e.g., brain), we recommend using a portion of the tissue sample for RNA purification with the RNeasy Fibrous Tissue Mini Kit and RNeasy Lipid Tissue Mini Kit, respectively.

AllPrep DNA/RNA/Protein Mini Kit
The AllPrep DNA/RNA/Protein Mini Kit allows simultaneous purification of DNA, RNA, and protein from the same cell or tissue sample. The kit can be used in combination with Allprotect Tissue Reagent, which delivers immediate stabilization of DNA, RNA, and protein in tissue samples for long-term storage without freezing. Tissues can be efficiently disrupted using a TissueRuptor or TissueLyser system.
RNeasy Lipid Tissue Mini Kit
The RNeasy Lipid Tissue Mini Kit includes QIAzol Lysis Reagent for lysing fatty tissues and other types of tissue, and RNeasy spin columns for purifying up to 100 µg of high-quality RNA. The kit can be automated using the QIAcube Connect. Tissue samples can be conveniently stabilized using RNAprotect Tissue Reagent (nonfatty tissues only) or Allprotect Tissue Reagent, and efficiently disrupted using a TissueRuptor or TissueLyser system.
RNeasy Fibrous Tissue Mini Kit
The RNeasy Fibrous Tissue Mini Kit includes proteinase K for removing abundant protein in fiber-rich tissue samples, and RNeasy spin columns for purifying up to 100 µg of high-quality RNA. The kit can be automated on the QIAcube Connect. Fibrous tissue samples can be conveniently stabilized using RNAprotect Tissue Reagent or Allprotect Tissue Reagent, and efficiently disrupted using a TissueRuptor or TissueLyser system. For larger samples, the RNeasy Fibrous Tissue Midi Kit (spin-column binding capacity of 1 mg RNA) is also available.
