High-Performance RNA Isolation Using the Maxwell™16 Total RNA Purification Kit

Abstract

The Maxwell™ 16 integrated system combines compact instrumentation, optimized automated methods, prefilled reagent cartridges, service and support to save time, enhance productivity and improve the consistency of results.We have developed the Maxwell™ 16 Total RNA Purification Kit to provide highly pure total RNA from a variety of sample sources including mammalian tissue, eukaryotic tissue culture cells, white blood cells, plant leaf material, or RNA-cleanup applications.The Maxwell™ 16 Instrument will process up to 16 samples in about 30 minutes of hands-free instrument operation. Purified RNA is ready for immediate downstream analysis without the need for precipitation, DNase treatment, or other post-purification manipulation. In this article we demonstrate the use of the Maxwell™ 16 integrated system for total RNA purification.
