This is a short overview of the protocol, for all detailed protocols, please refer to PRODUCT DOCUMENTS
- Trasnfer 600uL of samples from the iSWAB-RNA-v2 Tubt to a DNase/RNase free Eppendorf tube.
- Centrifuge cells at 5000 x g for 10 mins and remove supernatant.
- Add 500uL LB Buffer to cells and incubate at RT Centrifuge sample at 10,000 x g for 10mins.
- Add CE Buffer to the lysate in a 1:1 ratio.
Add 10uL MAG-R4 Particles to each sample. Pipette mix and incubate at RT for 10mins.
- Wash steps using RW1 and RB2 Buffer.
- DNA Digestion using DNAase I and DNAse I Digestion Buffer
- Elution using RNA Elution Buffer
