What are the shipping conditions and stability of the RiboMinus Pan-Prokaryote Probe Mix?
The RiboMinus Pan-Prokaryote Probe Mix is a DNA probe and is shipped on dry ice (while the rest of the kit is shipped at 4 degrees C). The RiboMinus Pan-Prokaryote Probe Mix is stable for at least a year when stored at -20 degrees C.
Which Pan-Prokaryote species are compatible with RiboMinus Bacteria 2.0 Transcriptome Isolation Kit?
For species compatibility inquiries (not already listed on the product page), please send an email to techsupport@thermofisher.com and provide a copy of your species rRNA FASTA sequences.
How much RNA can I expect to recover after rRNA depletion using RiboMinus Bacteria 2.0 Transcriptome Isolation Kit?
We typically recover approximately 3-6% of input total RNA following the rRNA depletion, concentration, and purification steps.
What are the total RNA input amounts and RiboMinus Pan-Prokaryote Probe Mix volumes I should use in the RiboMinus Bacteria 2.0 Transcriptome Isolation Kit workflow?
Use 1 µL (100 pmoles) RiboMinus Pan-Prokaryote Probe Mix with 100 ng to < 1 µg total RNA sample input.
Use 3 µL (300 pmoles) RiboMinus Pan-Prokaryote Probe Mix with 1 µg to 5 µg total RNA sample input.
Which total RNA isolation methods can I use with RiboMinus Bacteria 2.0 Transcriptome Isolation Kit?
We recommend isolating total RNA using one of the following methods:
- TRIzol Plus RNA Purification Kit (Cat. No. 12183555)
- PureLink RNA Mini Kit (Cat. No. 12183018A, 12183020, 12183025)
- MagMAX mirVana Total RNA Isolation Kit (Cat. No. A27828).
