The RNeasy Protect Cell Mini
Kit includes RNAprotect Cell Reagent, which
stabilizes RNA and DNA in sorted or cultured cells and allows
convenient and reliable transport of the cells at ambient temperature.
The stabilized cells can be stored or shipped at 30°C (1
day), 15-25°C (7 days), or 2-8°C (4 weeks). The RNeasy Protect Cell
Mini Kit provides the RNeasy Plus Mini Kit for purification of total
RNA.
Stabilized cells are lysed and
spun through gDNA Eliminator spin columns to effectively remove
genomic DNA. High-quality RNA is then purified using RNeasy spin
columns. The
purification procedure can be automated on the
QIAcube.
