About the process
The most advanced technology for detecting trace RNA analytes in dilute solutions
Minimal Equipment Required
Extract RNA from up to 1000 ml with only a magnetic stand and heating block.
Simple and Rapid Method
Complete extraction in just over 1 hour as compared to more than 1 day with precipitation methods.
Method
Carbon prep allows you to directly extract RNA from dilute solutions
No need for tedious precipitation of solids before extraction and no need for centrifuges or a cold room. Carbon technology allows you to pull RNA directly from the sample for faster sample preparation and superior results.
