Portelite™ Fluorimetric RNA Quantitation Kit

Optimized for Cytocite™ and Qubit™ Fluorometers

Detecting and quantitating small amounts of RNA is extremely important for a wide variety of biological applications such as measuring yields of in vitro transcribed RNA and measuring RNA concentrations before performing Northern blot analysis, S1 nuclease assays, RNase protection assays, cDNA library preparation, reverse transcription PCR, and differential display PCR. The most commonly used technique for measuring nucleic acid concentration is the determination of absorbance at 260 nm. The absorbance-based method is limited by the interferences caused from proteins, free nucleotides and other UV absorbing compounds. The use of sensitive and selective fluorescent nucleic acid stains alleviates this interference problem. StrandBrite™ RNA quantifying reagent is an ultrasensitive fluorescent nucleic acid stain for quantitating RNA in solution. StrandBrite™ RNA quantifying reagent can detect as little as 5 ng/mL RNA with a CytoCite™ or Qubit™ fluorometer. Our StrandBrite™ Green Fluorimetric RNA Quantitation Kit includes our StrandBrite™ Green nucleic acid stain with an optimized and robust protocol. It provides a convenient method for quantifying RNA in solutions.

RNA standard curve generated using StrandBrite™ Green Fluorimetric RNA Quantitation Kit. Fluorescence intensity was quantified using green fluorescence channel; regression model was calculated using linear fit.
