This kit is one of my favorite things on earth because it finally allowed me to purify high-quality RNA from a tough-to-lyse bacterium AND a eukaryotic alga in a single prep. I tried using the DNA/RNA shield and storing the sample at room temp (which I was dubious of), and even then the RNA quality assessed via bioanalyzer trace is beautiful. Good yield from both organisms too.

The ZymoBIOMICS® RNA Miniprep Kit is designed for purifying RNA from a wide array of sample inputs that is ready for microbiome or metagenome analyses. The ZymoBIOMICS® lysis system eliminates bias associated with unequal lysis efficiencies of different organisms (e.g. Gram-negative/positive bacteria, fungus, protozoans, and algae). The procedure uses Zymo-Spin™ Column technology that results in high-quality total RNA (including small RNAs 17-200 nt) that is free of PCR inhibitors and is ready for RT-PCR, hybridization, sequencing, etc.
