Stabilize your precious nucleic acids and press pause on sample extractions with RNA / DNA Defender
RNA/DNA Defender Solution
Preserving RNA in tissues and cultured cells is crucial for maintaining gene expression profiles. RNA/DNA Defender is a storage solution that stabilizes and protects RNA and DNA molecules after tissue excision and cell culture harvesting. It eliminates the need to process samples immediately, snap-freeze them in liquid nitrogen, or dry ice shipments.
Lexogen’s RNA/DNA Defender provides convenient sample storage and enables safe workflow pausing for resumption at a more opportune time. Without compromising RNA quality, tissues submerged in RNA/DNA Defender Solution and cells resuspended in RNA/DNA Defender Solution can be stored for:
- one day at 37 °C
- one week at room temperature
- one month at +4 °C
- up to one year at -20 °C
Performance
RNA/DNA Defender stabilizes RNA in tissues
Storage of tissue pieces in RNA/DNA Defender Solution stabilizes contained RNA even at temperature of 37°C or over longer periods of time at -20 °C (Fig. 1).
Workflow
RNA/DNA Defender Solution enables temporary storage of the specimen at temperatures where normally RNA degradation would occur.
