Product Description
Polysaccharides, polyphenols and abundant genomic DNA make plant tissue one of the harder starting materials for clean RNA. This Zymo Research miniprep kit tackles those challenges with a dedicated lysis buffer, a DNA-removal column and an optional inhibitor cleanup step, giving you total RNA, small RNAs included, from leaves, stems, flowers, fruit and seeds.
This listing is for catalog number R2024: Quick-RNA Plant Miniprep Kit, 50 Preps. After lysis in the specially formulated RNA Lysis Buffer, the sample passes through a Zymo-Spin IIICG Column that strips out genomic DNA at high capacity. Total RNA is then captured on a Zymo-Spin IIC Column, washed and eluted in DNase/RNase-Free Water. If inhibitors remain a concern, the eluate can be run through a Zymo-Spin III-HRC Spin Filter before RT-PCR or other downstream work. Order it from LIGHT LABS and keep your workflow moving.
Key Features
- Plant-optimized lysis – a dedicated RNA Lysis Buffer is formulated for diverse plant tissues.
- High-capacity DNA removal – the Zymo-Spin IIICG Column eliminates genomic DNA before RNA binding.
- Small RNA retention – recovers total RNA including small RNA species.
- Optional inhibitor cleanup – Zymo-Spin III-HRC Spin Filters remove compounds that can interfere with RT-PCR.
- Ready-to-use eluate – RNA is eluted in DNase/RNase-Free Water for immediate downstream use.
