Overview
The E.Z.N.A.® Micro RNA Kit combines the reversible binding properties of the HiBind® matrix, a new silica-based material, with the highly efficient lysis ability of RNA-Solv® to extract micro and large (>200 nt) RNA from a wide variety of starting materials. Micro and large RNA are separated to allow for quantification into downstream applications.
The system uses RNA-Solv® to efficiently lyse cells and protect RNA from degradation. Following a chloroform separation step, RNA is applied to a HiBind® RNA column where large RNA binds. The flow-through is retained and applied to a HiBind® Micro RNA column to bind small RNA.

Product Documentation & Literature
Product Data
MicroRNA was purified using the E.Z.N.A.® Micro RNA Kit
Figure 1. Purified large RNAs and miRNA from tissue samples was isolated with the E.Z.N.A.® miRNA Isolation Kit. RNA was extracted from samples as follows: sample 1 from fish liver, sample 2 from frog liver. Large RNA (5% of total purified RNA) was analyzed on a 1% agarose gel. miRNA (5% of total purified RNA) was analyzed on a 3% agarose gel to demonstrate yield and quality of the RNA.
