·         Solublization of RNA in Formamide (NWFSC)
Resuspending RNA in Formamide has several benefits over storage in water or ethanol. First, formamide will protect RNA from RNases. The RNA is also extremely stable...

·         Decontamination and Inhibition of Ribonucleases (Eppendorf)
RNA is more susceptible to degradation than DNA. Unlike Deoxyribonucleases (DNases), which require metal ions for activity (and can therefore easily be inactivated with chelating agents such as EDTA), ribonucleases (RNases) have virtually no cofactor requirements and advantage of the 2’ hydroxyl groups adjacent to the phosphodiester linkages in RNA as a reactive species.

Large scale total cellular RNA isolation using 4M guanidinium isothiocyanate lysis buffer and caesium chloride ultracentrifugation from adult organs.

·         Total RNA Isolation-the Lithium Chloride-SDS-Urea Method (Faulkner-Jones)
This method can be used for some adult tissues, most cell lines and embryos. Harvested tissues are homogenised in urea-lithium and the relatively insoluble lithium-RNA salts are precipitated overnight at 4oC. Much of the DNA remains in solution. The recovered lithium-RNA is acid phenol-chloroform extracted to remove contaminating proteins...

·         Selection of Polyadenylated RNA from Total RNA(PMCI Research)

·         Poly A+ RNA Preparation Using Proteinase K and SDS(PMCI Research)

·         Poly A+ RNA Preparation Using TRIzol Reagent(PMCI Research)

·         Isolation of poly A+ RNA from Total RNA by Oligo (deoxythymidine ) cellulose Chromatography  (Faulkner-Jones)
Total RNA is first isolated from the tissues or cells and then mRNA is isolated by PolyA+ selection using oligo(dT) cellulose. This is necessary for sll tissue sources rich in RNase (and some cell lines).

·         Direct Isolation of Poly A+ RNA(Faulkner-Jones)
This method can be used to isolate mRNA directly from cultured cells by adding the oligo (dT) cellulose to proteinase K-digested crude cell lysate. Some whole tissues can be lysed directly in the proteinase K solution, whilst others, notably pancreas, need prior extraction of total RNA using guanidinium or lithium-urea. The total RNA can then be PolyA+ selected using oligo(dT) cellulose.
