NucleoSpin® FFPE RNA	RNA from FFPE samples
Paraffin Dissolver: no use of xylene required
Features
Improved RNA quality from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples
• Enhanced RT-PCR performance – RNA is well decrosslinked and less fragmented • Very easy paraffin removal – Paraffin Dissolver (patent pending) included • Minimum number of working steps in a streamlined workflow • Efficient on-column DNA removal, rDNase included • Higher sensitivity with concentrated RNA – elution volume as little as 5 μL

  

Technology	Silica-membrane technology
Format	Mini spin columns-XS design
Sample material	≤ 7 sections (10 μm) of 250 mm2  total area (< 15 mg paraffin*)
RNA yield	Depending on amount and quality of the sample
A260/A280	1.9–2.1
Typical RIN (RNA integrity number)	Strongly depending on sample quality (2–6)
Elution volume	5–30 µL
Preparation time	70 min/6 preps
Binding capacity	110 µg
* When using the standard protocol with Paraffin Dissolver. Larger quantities of paraffin can be processed when using additional Paraffin Dissolver or the standard protocol with Xylene for deparaffinization.
Applications**
• Rapid isolation of RNA from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples, e.g.,     colon carcinoma (unstained), colon carcinoma (hematoxylin stained), colon mucosa, adenocarcinoma    of colon ransversum, liver (rat / human), liver carcinoma (hematoxylin stained), lymph node, spleen    (rat / human), pancreas rat / human; diabetic / non-diabetic), placenta • Isolation of RNA from fresh and archived FFPE samples • Isolation of RNA from specimen on object slides (stained or unstained)
• Typical downstream application: RT-PCR
