RNA isolation
Tested stored sample for RNA isolation
Description
RNA Stabilizing Solution is an aqueous tissue storage reagent that stabilizes and protects cellular RNA in intact, unfrozen tissue samples. RNA Stabilizing Solution eliminates the need to immediately process tissue samples or to freeze samples in liquid nitrogen for later processing. Tissue pieces can be harvested and submerged in this solution for storage without jeopardizing the quality or quantity of RNA obtained after subsequent RNA isolation. This solution can be added to cell pellets and even cells in medium. The samples can then be stored frozen or unfrozen.
Application
Protecting RNA integrity in tissues rich in RNases
Collecting samples from different time points without having to process the samples from each time point immediately.
Archiving tissues for future microdissection
Submerging animal cavities or organs in RNA Stabilization Solution to stabilize RNA during long, tedious dissections
Collecting samples at locations (e.g., hospitals, field sites, the space shuttle) where immediate RNA isolation is not possible.
Equivalent to RNA Liv, RNALater, etc
