The miRibo™ Ultra Sera/Plasma Kit is a cutting-edge solution designed for the isolation of total RNA, including miRNA, from serum and plasma samples. With a minimum input volume of 200 μl, this kit provides researchers with a reliable method to extract high-quality RNA without the need for laborious phase separation steps.
Featuring a phenol-free protocol, the miRibo™ Ultra Sera/Plasma Kit offers the convenience of benchtop processing while ensuring consistent and pure RNA for downstream applications. Utilizing MinElute spin column technology, this kit enables the isolation of RNA in small elution volumes of approximately 20 μl, ideal for applications requiring minimal sample input.
The performance of the miRibo™ Ultra Sera/Plasma Kit rivals that of its predecessor, the miRNeasy Serum/Plasma Kit, delivering comparable RNA yields and quality. This kit excels in efficiently isolating total RNA, including miRNA, from serum and plasma samples, enabling comprehensive analysis of extracellular vesicle RNA content.
The principle behind the miRibo™ Ultra Sera/Plasma Kit lies in its innovative spin-column technology. By leveraging Buffer RPL and Buffer RPP, this kit ensures efficient lysis of extracellular vesicles and precipitation of contaminants such as plasma proteins. The subsequent binding of RNA to the silica membrane and removal of contaminants through wash steps culminate in the elution of highly pure RNA suitable for downstream applications.
