These kits have been designed for the isolation of total RNA from a range of samples, including cells, bacteria, yeast, viruses, and bodily fluids, including plasma/serum, blood, saliva, CSF, and more ...

Starting from whole plant tissues and dissociating cells (protoplasts) or nuclei from the tissue, RNA extraction, cDNA synthesis by reverse transcription, library preparation followed by sequencing, ...

In this issue of BioTechniques, we present a method for glucose detection that combines fluorescence and colorimetric techniques, a method for characterizing a single-nucleotide polymorphism in ...

Transcriptomics represents a critical discipline in cancer research, enabling comprehensive mapping of gene expression profiles and the identification of fusion genes implicated in tumor development.

This approach holds promise for treating a wide range of diseases, from cancers and genetic disorders to viral infections. Unlike traditional drugs that act on proteins after they’re made, RNA ...
