How do I remove DNase from an RNA sample?
DNase can be removed by the following methods: acid phenol:choloform extraction, lithium chloride precipitation, EDTA, and heat inactivation, or using our MegaClear Transcription Clean-Up Kit (Cat. No. AM1908).
Alternatively, our Invitrogen TURBO DNA-free Kit (Cat. No. AM1907) is supplied with a DNase inactivation reagent that can be used to remove the DNase, as well as divalent cations such as magnesium and calcium, which can catalyze RNA degradation when RNA is heated with the sample.
Can the Filter Cartridges within the MEGAclear Transcription Clean-Up Kit (Cat. No. AM1908) be ordered separately?
Yes, we do offer the Spin Cartridges (Cat. No. AM10051G) as a stand-alone product, and they would be compatible with the MEGAclear Transcription Clean-Up Kit (Cat. No. AM1908).
