摘要:
The present invention pertains to method for purifying at least a target nucleic acid from a sample, said method comprising at least the following steps: a) incubating the sample with at least one protein-degrading compound; b) binding the target nucleic acid to a solid phase; c) eluting the target nucleic acid from the solid phase; d) incubating the eluted target nucleic acid with at least one protein-degrading compound; e) binding the target nucleic acid again to a solid phase; f) optionally eluting the bound target nucleic acid from the solid phase. It was surprisingly found that performing a second protein digestion step after the target nucleic acid was bound and eluted from a solid phase before the nucleic acids are rebound to a solid phase is very efficient in reducing remaining protein contaminations in the isolated nucleic acid.

The present invention provides RNA purification and/or analysis methods that use ammonium sulfate to mitigate or neutralize inhibitory effects of certain molecules. Exemplary inhibitory molecules that interfere with RNA function or analysis are those that bind to or cleave RNA, or stabilize RNA secondary structures.
摘要:
A collection container and method for collecting a predetermined volume of a biological sample, and particularly a whole blood sample, includes an effective amount of at least one stabilizing agent. The stabilizing agent is able to stabilize nucleic acids in the biological sample at the point of collection to prevent enzymatic degradation of the nucleic acids. The stabilizing agents include cationic compounds, detergents, particularly cationic detergents, chaotropic salts, ribonuclease inhibitors, chelating agents, and mixtures thereof.

The present invention relates to new compositions for isolating and/or stabilising nucleic acids in materials of biological origin. The compositions comprise as an essential ingredient a cationic compound of general formula Y+R1R2R3R4X− wherein Y may represent nitrogen or phosphorus R1, R2, R3 and R4 independently of one another may represent a branched or unbranched C1-C20-alkyl group and/or a C6-C20-aryl group as well as a C6-C26-aralkyl group and X− may represent an anion of an inorganic or organic, mono- or polybasic acid.

摘要:
A collection container and method for collecting a predetermined volume of a biological sample, and particularly a whole blood sample, includes at least one gene induction blocking agent in an amount effective to stabilize and inhibit gene induction. The gene induction blocking agent is able to stabilize nucleic acids in the biological sample at the point of collection to block ex vivo gene induction in the sample when stored at room temperature. The stabilizing agents include cationic compounds, detergents, particularly cationic detergents, chaotropic salts, ribonuclease inhibitors, chelating agents, organic solvents, organic reducing reagents, and mixtures thereof. The biological sample is collected directly from the animal and immediately mixed with the gene induction blocking agent without any intermediate processing or handling.

摘要:
A method for isolating small RNA from a sample is provided, the method comprising binding the RNA to silica particles by contacting the sample with a) at least one alcohol, b) at least one chaotropic salt comprising a chaotropic anion selected from the group consisting of trichloroacetate, perchlorate and trifluoroacetate and c) silica particles and separating the bound RNA from the rest of the sample. The present invention also provides compositions and kits to efficiently isolate small RNA molecules from samples, in particular biological samples such as blood, blood products tissue and body fluids.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of stabilizing and/or isolating nucleic acids, wherein a biological sample containing nucleic acids is contacted with a cationic compound. The invention also relates to said cationic compound per se and to the use of said cationic compound in stabilizing and/or isolating nucleic acids. Furthermore, the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions, diagnostic compositions, and to compositions used in research, which include cationic compounds or a complex being formed upon contact of said cationic compound with a nucleic acid.
