How can the Direct-zol™ RNA MiniPrep help in your research?

The Direct-zol™ RNA MiniPrep provides a streamlined method for the purification of up to 50 µg (per prep) of high-quality RNA directly from samples in TRI-Reagent® or other acid-guanidinium-phenol based reagents (see Specifications). The extraction method inactivates viruses and other infectious agents.* Total RNA including small and non-coding RNAs (17-200 nt) is effectively isolated from a variety of sample sources (cells, tissues, serum, plasma, blood, biological liquids, etc.) using this product.

The procedure is easy: simply apply a sample in TRI-Reagent® to the spin column and then spin, wash, and elute the RNA. No phase separation, precipitation, or postpurification steps are necessary. The result is broad range purification of small and large RNAs suitable for subsequent RNA-based methods including RT-PCR, transcription profiling, hybridization, etc.

For isolating RNA from tough-to-lyse and environmental samples, Zymo Research provides several products featuring unique BashingBead™ lysis technology. With these kits, RNA can be isolated from samples otherwise resistant to conventional lysis procedures. Samples include many solid tissues, plants, seeds, food, arthropods, Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, yeast, filamentous fungi, unicellular and filamentous algae, and protozoa. Additionally, the ZR Soil/Fecal RNA MicroPrep can isolate RNA from microorganisms in soil, sludge, sediments and both microbial and/or host RNA from feces.
