We needed to extract RNA from multiple tissues (50) isolated on the same day. RNA saved us the stress of extracting RNA from every tissue on the same day

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

RNA Extaction

Starting Material

Animal tissue (e.g. mouse)

Protocol Overview

Whole brains isolated from the mice was placed in 1mL RNA Later and placed at -20 degrees Celsius for later use

Tips

Weigh your tissue to determine how much RNA later is necessary. More is better than less

Results Summary

RNA did not degrade. Endpoint qRT-PCR had no issues.
