FAQ-1996
What sample types can be used with the AllPrep DNA/RNA 96 Kit?
The Allprep DNA/RNA 96 kit is designed for cultured human or animal cells, and for easy-to-lyse human or animal tissues. Tissues compatible with RNeasy Mini, RNeasy Plus Mini, and RNeasy Plus 96 are also compatible with the Allprep DNA/RNA 96 kit.
For more information on compatible kits and sample types, see our Selection Guide for RNA purification.

AllPrep DNA/RNA Kits
AllPrep DNA/RNA Kits enable simultaneous purification of genomic DNA and total RNA from each cell or tissue sample. Since there is no need to divide each sample into two for separate purification procedures, maximum yields of DNA and RNA can be achieved. The purified DNA and RNA are eluted separately.
The AllPrep DNA/RNA Micro and Mini Kits can be automated on the QIAcube Connect. The AllPrep DNA/RNA 96 Kit is well suited for high-throughput purification of genomic DNA and total RNA from up to 96 samples.
RNeasy Plus Kits
RNeasy Plus Kits are next generation QIAGEN RNA extraction kits, combining high-quality RNA purification with effective gDNA removal with unique gDNA Eliminator columns or plates. Total RNA of high purity and yield is obtained from a wide range of cultured cells and easy-to-lyse tissues. The RNeasy Plus Micro Kit is specially designed for limited amounts of samples and isolates up to 45 µg pure total RNA The RNeasy Plus Mini Kit purifies up to 100 µg total RNA (>200 nt) from a single extraction with efficient gDNA removal. Both kits can be automated on the QIAcube Connect and samples can be conveniently stabilized using RNAprotect Tissue Reagent or Allprotect Tissue Reagent and efficiently disrupted using a TissueRuptor II or TissueLyser II or LT system (available separately). The RNeasy Plus 96 Kit is for high-throughput purification of total RNA from cultured cells grown in 96-well plates.
RNeasy Kits
RNeasy Kits are the gold standard for total RNA isolation. They provide fast purification of high-quality RNA from small to large amounts of cells, tissues, and yeast using silica membrane RNeasy spin columns or 96-well plates. Tissue samples can be conveniently stabilized using RNAprotect Tissue Reagent or Allprotect Tissue Reagent, and efficiently disrupted using a TissueRuptor II or TissueLyser II or LT system. The RNeasy 96 Kit enables high-throughput purification of total RNA from up to 96 cultured cell samples using silica membrane RNeasy 96 plates. A dedicated RNeasy QIAcube Kit enables automated purification of 1–12 samples on the QIAcube Connect.
