Piotr Chomczynski of a US-based Molecular Research Center and an Italian professor of oncology, Nicoletta Sacchi, first developed one of the total RNA extraction methods. The method is based on AGPC or Acid Guanidinium thiocyanate-phenol-chloroform extraction technique. The basic idea of the AGPC method is phase isolation by centrifugation with chloroform and phenol. Guanidinium thiocyanate enables the process of denaturation of proteins. It makes them soluble into the organic stage.
The stability of RNA and DNA molecules is decided by the pH condition. Thus, low pH conditions permits AGPC to enhance RNA molecules selectively in the aqueous stage by centrifugation. However, Small RNA isolation, which is based on the AGPC total RNA extraction method, has quite a lot of limitations to extract RNA. It is additionally necessary to take the remaining salts away from the sample by cleaning with 70% ethanol. This is for the reason that RNA pieces precipitated by isopropanol will usually contain high amounts of salt. Therefore, chaotropic reagents, such as ethanol,are obligatory to interrupt salt-nucleic acid complex thus salts should be solubilized selectively into water. In addition, it is tricky to isolate pure DNA, RNA, and protein because of interphase pollution.
A Micro Spin column is always considered ideal for fast, effortless, and cheap cleanup of protein or DNA samples. They are available in a variety of bio-gel specifications. These varieties include Columns with Bio-Gel P-6 and Columns with Bio-Gel P-30. These Bio-Spin columns will clean up protein and DNA samples speedily. They are packed with specifically sized Bio-Gel P gels and they are delivered in a fully hydrated condition.
Nowadays, the Micro Spin columns are available in a wide range according to the needs of users. Many global companies are now developing, producing, and selling these spin columns all over the world. The micro spin columns are the most sought-after products for the life science study as well as for medical diagnostic markets.
