EPICENTRE Biotechnologies' MasterPure™ RNA Purification Kit uses a novel technology that enables efficient purification of intact total RNA from every type of biological material, even formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue—which is often of notoriously low quality. The quality of FFPE RNA is crucial for downstream molecular analysis, such as real-time PCR. Assays of the integrity of FFPE extracted RNA using EPICENTRE's MasterPure Kit by determining the 3'/5' ratio of specific gene targets consistently give values of less than 2, which is considered to indicate ''good'' quality RNA. The MasterPure™ RNA Purification Kit therefore enables you to obtain superior RNA quality and quantity from FFPE tissues.
