RNase Inhibition for reliable RNA work
Ribonucleases (RNases) are enzymes that specifically degrade RNA molecules. Since the human body uses RNases to defend against invading microorganisms, RNases are found in bodily fluids such as tears, saliva, mucus, and sweat. RNA is highly unstable, which is why a pure, RNase-free environment is the most important prerequisite for the success of your experiments.
Bio&SELL offers ready-to-use products for RNase-free preparation of your workspace as well as for RNase-free work directly in reaction mixtures:
- RNase Inhibitor - For inhibiting specific eukaryotic RNases in reaction mixtures
- RNaseSTOP - Ready-to-use decontaminant for surfaces and equipments
FAQs
Why is RNase inhibition important in RNA work?
RNA is very unstable. To obtain good yields and high-quality RNA, it is essential to protect RNA from degradation by RNases.
Does the RNase Inhibitor inhibit all RNases?
No. Our RNase inhibitor inhibits only eukaryotic RNases, including RNase A, B, and C.
What can RNaseSTOP be used for?
RNaseSTOP is intended for the decontamination of work surfaces, equipment, glassware, and plastic surfaces.
