RNA from plant samples: Quick-RNA

The Quick-RNA™ Plant Miniprep Kit from Zymo Research isolates intact total RNA from plant samples including leaves, stems, buds, flowers, fruit and seeds. Using ultra-high density BashingBead™ technology to ensure efficient sample lysis, this kit produces inhibitor-free RNA ideal for use in Next-Gen sequencing, RT-PCR, microarray, hybridisation and other sensitive downstream applications.

Benefits of using the Quick-RNA Plant Miniprep Kit
• Intact, inhibitor-free, total RNA (including small/micro RNAs) isolated
• Complete sample lysis and disruption
• Compatible with leaves, stems, buds, flowers, fruit and seeds
• Suitable for all sensitive downstream applications including Next-Gen sequencing, RT-PCR, microarray and hybridisation

RNA  from  a  Nicotiana sp.  leaf  was  spiked  with  humic  acid,  and  RNA  was  isolated  with  and  without  the Zymo-Spin III-HRC Filter. RT-qPCR detected early amplification for the filter treated samples compared to the untreated samples (cp = 30 vs. 31)
