Reagents Used With the Aurum™ Total RNA 96 Kit
• The low stringency wash solution is provided as a 5x concentrate. Add
4 volumes (240 ml) 95–100% ethanol to the low stringency wash
solution concentrate before initial use.
• BeforeusingtheRNAlysissolution,add850µlofb-mercaptoethanol to the
solution,forafinalconcentrationof1%.
• The RNase-free DNase I is provided as a lyophilized powder. Reconstitute
theDNaseIbyadding250µl10mMTris,pH7.5(notsupplied)tothevial.
Pipet up and down briefly to mix. Do not vortex. Store the reconstituted
DNase I at –20°C in a nonfrost-free freezer.
• BacterialtotalRNAisolationwithoneRNAbindingplaterequirestheuseof
10 ml of TE (10 mM Tris, 1 mM EDTA, pH 7.5) for diluting the lysozyme. TE
and lysozyme are not supplied with the kit.
• Yeast total RNA isolation with one RNA binding plate requires the use of
100 ml of lyticase dilution buffer (1 M sorbitol, 0.1 M EDTA, pH 7.4,
0.1%b-mercaptoethanol), which is not supplied with the kit.
