Ribozol™ RNA Extraction Reagent is a single phase phenol solution optimized for the isolation of total RNA from a variety of cell and tissue types.

Supplier: VWR Chemicals

RiboZol™ Plus RNA Purification Kit purifies and recovers all sizes and species of RNA, including large RNAs such as ribosomal RNA (rRNA) or messenger RNA (mRNA), and small RNAs <200 nucleotides, including microRNAs (miRNA) and small inhibitory RNAs (siRNA). The kit combines the benefits of organic RNA extraction using RiboZol™ RNA extraction reagent with the ease and convenience of spin column technology. Firstly, RiboZol™ RNA extraction reagent extracts total RNA from cells or tissue, including difficult sample types. Subsequent column chromatography employs a proprietary resin as the separation matrix to yield up to 35 μg of highly purified total RNA.

E.Z.N.A.® Cycle-Pure kits are designed for the rapid purification of single or double-stranded DNA from PCR or other enzymatic reactions. The purification procedure completely removes primers, nucleotides, enzymes, salts, and other impurities from DNA samples. E.Z.N.A.® MicroElute Cycle-Pure kits are specifically intended to purify PCR samples with a small elution volume of 10 to 15 µl. The E-Z® 96 Cycle-Pure kit procedure allows for the parallel purification of up to 96 PCR samples from multiple amplifications. The E-Z® 96 Cycle-Pure kit utilises multiwell technology for manual or fully automated high throughput purification.

The E.Z.N.A.® tissue DNA kit offers a simple, rapid, and cost effective method for the isolation of DNA from a wide variety of sample sources including fresh or frozen animal cells and tissues. After cell lysis, the DNA purification process can be completed in less than 30 minutes. Up to 30 mg of tissue at a time can be readily processed at a time using the simple E.Z.N.A.® tissue DNA protocol. Single or multiple samples can be simultaneously processed with this spin-column based kit. There is no need for phenol/chloroform extractions, or time-consuming steps such as precipitation with isopropanol or ethanol. DNA purified using the E.Z.N.A.® tissue DNA kit is ready for most downstream applications such as PCR, southern blot and restriction enzyme digestion.

Gel purification of DNA is a common technique used for the isolation of specific DNA fragments. However, most methods either fail to completely remove agarose (which can lead to problems in downstream manipulations), shear the DNA, or result in very low yields.

The E.Z.N.A.® Blood DNA Maxi Kit is specially designed for large scale isolation of genomic DNA. The kit provides a rapid purification of genomic DNA from up to 10 ml whole blood samples. Sample sources include fresh and frozen whole blood treated with common anticoagulants such as citrate, EDTA and heparin. In addition plasma, serum, buffy coat, bone marrow, lymphocytes, platelets, and body fluid samples can also be used. Phenol/chloroform extractions, and time-consuming steps such as precipitation with isopropanol have been eliminated. DNA purified using the E.Z.N.A.® Blood DNA Maxi method is free of contaminants and enzyme inhibitors making it suitable for most downstream applications such as PCR, Southern blotting and restriction enzyme digestion of high-quality total DNA.

The E.Z.N.A.® Viral RNA Kit is designed for the isolation of viral RNA from cell free fluids such as plasma, serum, urine and cell culture supernatant. The procedure completely removes contaminants and enzyme inhibitors making viral RNA isolation fast, convenient and reliable. The kit is also suitable for the isolation of total RNA from cultured cells, tissues and bacteria. RNA purified using the E.Z.N.A.® Viral RNA method is ready for all downstream applications such as RT-PCR.

E.Z.N.A.® Plant RNA kit provides a convenient and rapid method for the isolation of total RNA from a variety of plant samples. This kit provides a homogeniser column for filtration and homogenisation of viscous plant cell lysate by centrifugation in combination with the HiBind® RNA spin column for RNA purification. All the contaminants including polysaccharides and phenolic compounds are effectively removed. Purified RNA can be used for most downstream applications such as RT-PCR, northern blot analysis, differential display, and poly(A)+ RNA selection.

The E.Z.N.A.® Blood RNA Kit is designed for the isolation of total intracellular RNA from up to 1 ml of fresh, or frozen whole blood treated with any common anticoagulant such as heparin, EDTA or acid-citrate-dextrose. The procedure completely removes contaminants and enzyme inhibitors making total RNA isolation fast, convenient and reliable. Red blood cells are selectively lysed and white cells are collected by centrifugation. After lysis of white blood cells under denaturing conditions that inactivate RNases, the lysate is homogenised with a homogeniser spin column. The sample is then applied to a HiBind® spin column. Cellular debris and other contaminants such as haemoglobin are effectively washed away and high-quality RNA is finally eluted in DEPC treated water.

E.Z.N.A.® Plasmid Midi Kit offers a novel and reliable method of isolating up to 200 µg of plasmid DNA in less than 60 minutes. This kit combines HiBind® membrane technology with the time-tested consistency of alkaline SDS lysis of bacterial cells to deliver high-quality plasmid DNA. The DNase/RNase-free HiBind® DNA midi columns operate by eliminating time consuming phenol-chloroform extractions and alcohol precipitations. Plasmid purification using the E.Z.N.A.® Plasmid Midi Kit follows a simple bind-wash-elute procedure thereby making it possible for multiple samples to be processed. Although yields vary according to plasmid copy number, E.coli strain, and conditions of growth, 50 ml of an overnight culture in LB medium will typically produce 200 µg of high-copy number plasmid DNA. When working with low-copy number plasmids the starting culture volume can be increased up to 100 ml. High-quality DNA is ready for immediate use in routine molecular biology applications, such as automated fluorescent sequencing, restriction enzyme digestion, and transfection screening.

The E.Z.N.A.® Plasmid Mini Kit I is designed to isolate up to 30 µg of high-quality plasmid DNA from 1 to 5 ml bacterial cultures in 30 minutes or less. Plasmid DNA purification is simplified with HiBind® Mini Column technology into three quick steps: Bind, wash, and elute. Purified plasmid DNA is immediately ready for a wide variety of downstream applications such as routine screening, restriction enzyme digestion, and manual/automated fluorescent DNA sequencing. E.Z.N.A.® Plasmid Mini Kit I is available in either V-spin or Q-spin column format. V-spin column formats have an attached lid while Q-spin columns do not. Both versions can be used for centrifugation or vacuum protocols.
