RNA ISOLATION AND PURIFICATION KITS

Zymo Research RNA purification kits are based on affinity spin columns (single columns or 96-well filtration plates), containing a unique silica-based matrix. The material offers several advantages compared to standard nucleic acid purification columns:

• FREE testkits available for evaluation, click here >>
• Isolating RNA as small as 17 nt.
• Low elution volumes (6-8 ul) 
• Fast and simple protocols 
• High yields of extremely pure RNA 
• No wash residue carryover 
• No retention volume, therefore no loss of RNA
• All components can be ordered individually
• Kits are available for the isolation of RNA from many different sources

Total RNA Isolation
Zymo Research offers an assortment of products that allow for the simple, rapid, and efficient isolation of total RNA from a variety of biological sources including fresh, frozen, or paraffin-embedded tissues, cultured cells, buccal cells, whole blood, plasma, serum, urine, yeast, or RNA viruses. Like our RNA clean-up kits, all of the RNA isolation kits feature Fast-Spin column technology for highly concentrated RNA that is well suited for applications like microarrays, denaturing-gel electrophoresis, Northern blotting, and RT-PCR. The versatile solution for total RNA purification, Quick-RNA kits are available in Micro-, Mini-, Midi- and 96-well format. Additionally, the ZR RNA MicroPrep™ and ZR RNA MiniPrep™ kits are capable of isolating RNA species as small as 17 nt. Each kit has been optimized for a particular application with specialized, nuclease-free components that ensure: 1) maximum levels of membrane solubilization and cellular disruption, 2) total inhibition of nuclease activity, 3) complete deproteinization of the sample, 4) efficient isolation and concentration of the RNA, 5) stabilization and safe storage of the RNA.

Environmental RNA Purification
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.

RNA Clean-up & Concentration
The RNA Clean & Concentrator kits facilitate the efficient removal of RNA polymerases, ligases, and RNA modifying enzymes as well as free NTPs and their analogs including fluorescent and radio-labeled derivatives. Zymo Research developed the Zymoclean™ Gel RNA Recovery Kit and the ZR small-RNA™ PAGE Recovery Kit for recovery of RNA from agarose and polyacrylamide gel matrices, respectively.

DNA/RNA Co-purification
To meet the needs of scientists who wish to extract DNA and RNA from the same source simultaneously, Zymo Research developed a line of DNA/RNA co-purification kits. A scientist can process cells or tissues with the ZR-Duet™ DNA/RNA MiniPrep to purify DNA and RNA from the same sample into separate fractions. The ZR Viral DNA/RNA Kit™ is ideal for the purification of broad range of viral and host DNA and/or RNA genomes using blood serum, plasma, cells or cell culture supernatants as input. The ssDNA/RNA Clean & Concentrator™ is a unique adaptation of our Clean & Concentrator™ product line designed for the separation of single-stranded and double-stranded DNA and/or RNA samples.
