RNeasy Micro Kit

Total RNA was isolated by 5 different users in duplicate from 2 mg of the indicated rat tissues, using the RNeasy Micro Kit. Quantitative, real-time RT-PCR was carried out on an ABI Sequence Detection System using the QuantiTect Probe RT-PCR Kit, with primers and probes specific for c-jun.|A fine needle aspirate was obtained from rabbit liver using a 19.5-gauge biopsy needle, and the sample was immediately stabilized in an RNAlater TissueProtect Tube. Total RNA was isolated using the RNeasy Micro Kit. The high quality of the RNA is shown by scanning with the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer.|The RNeasy Micro Kit is designed for isolation of total RNA from small samples. Optimized protocols are provided for RNA isolation from microdissected tissues, small amounts of standard tissues, fiber-rich tissues, and cells. Protocols are also available for RNA cleanup and concentration.|Total RNA was isolated from the indicated number of HeLa cells using the RNeasy Micro Kit. Quantitative, real-time PCR was carried out on an ABI Sequence Detection System using the QuantiTect Probe PCR Kit, with primers and probes specific for c-jun. In order to evaluate the efficiency of the on-column DNase digestion, each sample was amplified after reverse transcription (+RT) and directly, without a reverse transcription step (-RT). The lack of signal in the "-RT" samples indicates that no DNA was detectable. Of the "-RT" results, only the 50,000 cell data points are visible.|Total RNA was isolated from the indicated number of HeLa cells using the RNeasy Micro Kit. [A] Amplification plot.

Real-time RT-PCR was carried out on the LightCycler System using the QuantiTect Probe RT-PCR Kit, with primers and probes specific for β-actin.|
