RNA Extraction from Tissue Using Bioruptor® (Standard/Plus) and RNA Extraction Kit from Diagenode

Isolation of intact RNA is essential for many techniques used in gene expression analysis. Diagenode’s Bioruptor® Sonicator uses state-of-the-art ultrasound technology to efficiently disrupt and homogenize tissues in one step and Diagenode’s RNA extraction reagent (included in the RNA extraction kit) is used as sonication medium to maintain the integrity of RNA while disrupting cells and dissolving cell components. Bioruptor® together with RNA extraction reagent offer unique benefits for tissue disruption and homogenization. The protocol is fast, efficient, reproducible and minimizes contamination through non-contact.
