FAQ's on Carbon-Based RNA Extraction and Isolation

What are RNA extraction / isolation kits used for?

Life Magnetics’ RNA extraction & isolation kits are used for a wide variety of applications, mainly for extracting high yield, high purity RNA from a range of sample types (biological, wastewater, etc.).

What is magnetic bead-based RNA extraction / isolation?

Magnetic bead-based RNA extraction / isolation utilizes beads coated with oligo(dT) (or other RNA-specific probes) to capture RNA molecules. The beads are then collected - typically by using a magnetic field - and washed. After this, RNA is released from the beads. Bead-based extraction methods excel in achieving quicker extractions, higher purity, better yields, and more.

How does carbon-based isolation compare to silica isolation? Why is carbon-based isolation better?

We work with carbon-based RNA extraction & isolation kits for many reasons. First, carbon-based RNA extraction/isolation is more efficient compared to silica-based methods. Life Magnetics’ C-Prep RNA extraction/isolation methods utilize carbon-based magnetic beads that have a higher binding capacity and are able to bind to a much wider range of nucleic acids. As mentioned before, carbon-based magnetic bead extractions are also able to achieve quicker extractions and better purity/yields. These extractions can also be easily scaled to larger samples.

What are the benefits of Life Magnetics’ kits?

Life Magnetics' kits provide a simple, low-cost method of RNA extraction and isolation and are compatible with a variety of lysis buffers and methodologies. They provide ultra-pure RNA with better yields, even when working with difficult samples. Moreover, our kits allow you to isolate and extract RNA in under 10 minutes. Other benefits include:

Simple Automation: Compatible with liquid and bead handling automated systems
Integrated Shipping: RNA complexes with carbon for stable shipping at room temperature
No DNase Cleanup: So selective that DNA contamination is undetectable by PCR
