The Quick-RNA™ Tissue/Insect Microprep provides for rapid isolation of total RNA from various insect and arthropod specimens (e.g. mosquitoes, bees, lice, ticks, Drosophila melanogaster). The Quick-RNA™ Tissue/Insect Microprep employs ultra-high density ZR BashingBeads™ for sample homogenization and a robust buffer system delivering total RNA (including small RNAs) as well as DNA removal from a variety of samples.
The Zymo-Spin™ IIIC Column allows for high-capacity DNA elimination and the subsequent Zymo-Spin™ IC Column efficiently binds total RNA. The DNase/RNase-Free Water eluted RNA is suitable for subsequent procedures including RT-PCR.
