AmpliScribe™ T7-Flash™ Biotin-RNA Transcription Kit

Applications

  • Production of nonradioactive RNA probes for any purpose, including microarray (transcription profiling) studies, in situ hybridization, and blotting experiments.

The AmpliScribe™ T7-Flash™ Biotin-RNA Transcription Kit enables high-yield synthesis of biotin-RNA or biotin-antisense RNA (aRNA, also called cRNA). The kit incorporates Biotin-16-UTP directly into the RNA transcript. High yields of biotin-RNA are produced from as little as 50 ng of input DNA template.

Benefits

  • The kit uses Epicentre’s AmpliScribe T7-Flash rapid, high-yield in vitro transcription technology to generate the highest possible yield of biotin-RNA.
  • In vitro transcription reaction conditions are optimized to yield optimal levels of uniformly labeled biotin-RNA for high signal intensity.
  • RNase Inhibitor included.
