Applications**


• Total RNA isolation from cultured cells, tissue (standard protocol)
• Support protocol for total RNA from < 1010 bacterial cells (Gram-negative, Gram-positive) or 
   < 3 x 108 yeast cells
• Support protocol for RNA clean-up from reaction mixtures
• Support protocol for total RNA from samples stored in RNAlater®
• Typical downstream applications: real-time RT-PCR, Northern blotting, primer extension, 
   array technology, RNase protection assays

The amount of DNA contamination is significantly reduced during on-column rDNase digestion. Anyhow, in very sensitive applications it might be possible to detect traces of DNA. The NucleoSpin RNA L system is checked by the following procedure: One million HeLa cells are subjected to RNA isolation according to the protocol. RNA eluate is used as template for PCR detection of a 1 kb fragment in a 30 cycle reaction. Generally, no PCR fragment is obtained if the rDNase is applied. However, a strong PCR fragment is obtained if rDNase is omitted. The eventuality of DNA detection with PCR increases with:
– the number of DNA copies per preparation: single copy target < plastidial/ mitochondrial target < cells transfected with plasmid
– decreasing PCR amplicon size
