Overview

E.Z.N.A.® Plant RNA Kit provides a convenient and rapid method for the isolation of total RNA from a variety of plant samples. This kit provides a homogenizer column for filtration and homogenization of viscous plant cell lysate by centrifugation in combination with the HiBind RNA spin column for RNA purification. All the contaminants including polysaccharides and phenolic compounds are effectively removed. Purified RNA can be used for most downstream applications such as RT-PCR, Northern blot analysis, differential display, and poly A+ RNA selection.

Product Data

Comparison of yield and quality between E.Z.N.A.® Plant RNA Kit and a leading competitor.

Figure 1. Omega Bio-tek’s yield vs. Company Q’s yield. Total RNA was isolated from 100 mg of Arabidopsis thaliana leaf tissue according to manufacturer’s recommended protocols. One tenth of eluate was analyzed on a denaturing agent agarose gel. O.D. values calculated with Thermo Scientific’s NanoDrop® 2000c.
