Is RNA co-purified using the QIAsymphony mericon Bacteria Kit?

In principle, RNA co-purification is possible using the QIAsymphony mericon Bacteria Kit. However, at the beginning of the protocol, the reaction solution is heated to 90°C for 5 min to lyse the bacteria. If it is not completely destroyed, any RNA should be strongly depleted.
