Cell Applications Inc. guarantees to provide the highest quality RNA available. A variety of Total
RNA's are prepared from primary cells and tissues from human and animal using a modified guanidium thiocyanate method. Purified RNA is ready for use in various downstream applications, including microarray
hybridization, PCR cDNA synthesis and RT-PCR analysis.
Stringent quality control tests were performed on each preparation to confirm the integrity and
stability of RNA.
-
Distinct 28S and 18S ribosomal RNA were shown
on 1% denaturing gel before and after 37oC incubation.
-
No visible Genomic DNA band of 23 kb was
detected.
-
No genomic DNA contamination was detected
following PCR amplification using house-keeping gene G3PDH primers.
-
A 2.2 kb product from mRNA was detected
following RT-PCR amplification using human heat shock gene Hsp60 primers.
-
A discrete band of 2 kb was detected upon
hybridization with a human beta-actin cDNa probe in Northern Blot analysis.
-
Primers were designed to detect mRNA for genes
of interest to confirm the phenotype of the cells.

Fig 1.
Two distinct 28S and 18S ribosomal RNA bands were showed on 1% denatured agarose gel. Intensity of 28S is two times as that of 18S band with no degrading. Lane 1-4: Total RNA of RAOSMC, HFDPC, HUVEC, and HOb.

Fig 2. RT-PCR to verify the
integrity of RNA and phenotype. Lane 1-4: Total RNA of RAOSMC, HFDPC, HUVEC, and HOb with HSP60 primers. Lane 5: Total RNA of stimulated human osteoblasts with osteocalin primers. Lane 6: RT product of re-differeciated human
chondrocytes with aggrecan primers.

Fig 3.
The absence of contaminating genomic DNA was confirmed by PCR with G3PDH primers. Size of 450 bps target band was not seen on 1% agarose gel. Lane 1-4: Total RNA of RAOSMC, HFDPC, HUVEC and HOb. Lane 5: positive control of G3PDH cDNA.

Fig 4. Human Total RNA was denatured and separated on 1% of denaturing agarose gel after which the RNA was transferred onto nylon membrane
and hybridized with human beta-actin probe. Lane 1: human pancreas total RNA. Lane 2: human lung Total RNA.
