Description
The EZBioscience® Tissue RNA Purification Kit (for Adipose Tissue) integrates phenol/guanidine-based sample lysis and silica-membrane purification of high-quality total RNA from animal tissues and cells with high fat content. Samples are first lysed and homogenized in Lysis Buffer, which immediately inactivates RNases to ensure isolation of intact RNA. After addition of chloroform, the homogenate is separated into aqueous and organic phases by centrifugation. RNA partitions to the upper, aqueous phase while DNA partitions to the interphase and proteins to the lower, organic phase or the interphase. The upper, aqueous phase is collected, and ethanol is added to provide appropriate binding conditions. The sample is then applied to the RNA Spin Column, where the total RNA binds to the membrane, and contaminants are effectively washed away. Finally, high-quality RNA is eluted in Elution Buffer. The purified total RNA is suitable for use in a variety of downstream applications, including: RT-PCR, RT-qPCR, RNA-seq, Northern blotting, Poly A+ RNA selection, Microarray analysis, and so on.
Components
Components | EZB-RN001A (100 Preps) |
Lysis Buffer | 55 ml |
Wash Buffer 1* | 13 ml |
Wash Buffer 2* | 13 ml |
Elution Buffer | 10 ml |
Spin Columns for RNA (with Collection Tubes) | 100 Preps |
*Before using for the first time, add 52 ml of 100% ethanol to the Wash Buffer 1 and Wash Buffer 2 separately.
Storage
Store the Lysis Buffer at 2 ~ 8°C, protected from light. Store other components at room temperature (when using these buffers, be careful to avoid contamination). Dividing the Elution Buffer into small aliquots upon reception is suggested.
Experimental Procedure at a Glance

2. High yields of RNA from fatty tissues /Tissues with high fat content.
3. High-quality RNA for all downstream applications.
Representative experimental results
Figure 1. The RNA purified by this kit from adipose tissue was examined by Nanodrop, the concentration and purity(assessed by OD 260/280 and OD 260/230) was shown on the left.
Figure 2. microRNA and lncRNA isolated from 293T cells are detected. These results showed that, this EZBioscience® Tissue RNA Purifica- tion Kit (for Adipose Tissue) can be used for microRNA and lncRNA purification and achieved good performance.
