The reverse transcription product of total RNA is invisible after electrophoresis.It is a normal phenomenon, because the amount of RNA template is low, and the amount of reverse transcription products in different sizes is even lower. 2. No specific product is amplified from the reverse transcription product.a. To exclude the problem of PCR reaction system or reverse transcription product, use gene-specific primers to amplify internal reference genes, such as actin and GAPDH. If reference genes can be amplified, but not the target gene, it indicates primers of the target gene are not well designed. b. Template RNA may be degraded. The integrity of total RNA can be checked by agarose gel or on-chip electrophoresis. Intact total RNA exhibits sharp, clear 28S and 18S rRNA bands, and the 28S rRNA band should be approximately twice as intense as the 18S rRNA band. A ratio less than 2 indicates the degradation of total RNA and new total RNA should be prepared. c. RNA samples may contain some components that inhibit the activity of reverse transcriptase. Those contaminants include phenol, SDS, EDTA, guanidine salts, phosphoric acid, pyrophosphoric acid, polyamine, spermidine, etc, which can be removed effectively by column purification or precipitation, washing, and redissolution. Total RNA extracted by Zol or Trizol produced by can fully meet the requirements of reverse transcription.d. Insufficient templates for reverse transcription. When DNase I is used to remove the residual DNA in the RNA sample prior to reverse transcription and is subjected to heat-inactivation, EDTA should be added to the RNA sample at a final concentration of 2.5mM to protect RNA from degradation under high temperature. Additionally, to amplify a specific gene, it is necessary to extract RNA from tissues in which the target gene is highly expressed. e. An inappropriate primer is used for reverse transcription. Random hexamer instead of Oligo(dT)18 should be used for the reverse transcription of bacterial total RNA which does not have poly(A) tails. Gene-specific primers used for reverse transcription must be well-designed... Read More | Inquire | Inquire | Proteinase K is a stable and highly reactive serine protease.

This enablesProduct Characteristics UNI-StabilPLUS is a universal stabilizer for the dilution and stabilization of both Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) and Alkaline Phosphatase (AP) labeled proteins and antibodies, in order to maintain the molecular conformation and prevent loss of activity over time. This enables the making of pre-diluted, ready-to-use conjugates, minimizing assay errors in dilution. Superior stabilization of HRP and AP conjugated antibodies in low as well as high protein dilutions is seen, when using UNI-StabilPLUS. When tested with AP conjugated antibody stability is seen as follows: • at least 3 years at 2-8 °C • at least 2 years at room temperature • at least 4 weeks at 37 °C When tested with HRP conjugated antibody stability is seen as follows: • at least 2 years at 2-8 °C • at least 1 years at room temperature • at least 2 weeks at 37 °CUNI-StabilPLUS is recommended for the dilution of antibodies directed against rabbit immunoglobulins unlike HRP-StabilPLUS (cat. no. H494387) and Antibody Enhancer (cat. no. A494276).Composition & Properties UNI-StabilPLUS is a ready-to use buffer that appears as an opaque solution. The product is based on a mild acid Tris buffer containing proprietary stabilizing components. UNI-StabilPLUS contains neither BSA, nor other material from bovine serum, no azide, mercury or other toxic components.Working Procedure 1.Make a series of dilutions of the HRP- or AP conjugated protein in UNI-StabilPLUS in order to determine the optimal dilution. 2.Run the assay as usual or store the diluted conjugated protein preferably at 2-8 °C.Tips & Tricks • Avoid using phosphate buffers for AP-conjugated antibody assays. We recommend the use of Tris/HCl, Tween as the washing buffer, instead of a PBS buffer which will reduce signal significantly. • For extended stability of HRP conjugated antibodies, HRP-StabilPLUS (cat. no. H494387) is recommended. Handling & Storage • Store solution at 2-8 °C... Read More |
