  • What is the best DNA extraction kits for RNAlater preserved cattle tissue

    Hi, All
    Could anyone please tel me ifni can DNA extraction kits to extract gDNA from RNAlater preserved cattle skin tissue, i am conducting a PhD research on polymorphism and mRNA expression levels of HSP 70 and 90 in Nigerian and Indian cattle. i am about to commence gDNA extraction for polymorphism study and genotyping of HSP 70 and 90 genes from the samples next week. I came to India with the samples from Nigeria. I took the samples between January- early march, 2017. i stored the samples in refrigerator before my travelling, i transported the sample with ice park to create a refrigerated environment for the sample. I intend doing mRNA expression study on the samples after completion of polymorphism study of the genes. i take time to give these preamble so that whoever that want to guide me will have detail information to work with. So kindly guide me on the use of extraction kits as phenol-chlorofom assay is not available in the lab that is hosting me. looking forward for your kind suggestions.
    Thank you

    I have not tried it,but I assume any spin column kit will work just fine. E.g. Qiagen DNeasy etc.
    Just remove as much of the RNAlater ( rinse the pieces in nuclease free water?) as possible and avoid overloading the kits. Perhaps start with half of the suggested tissue amount?

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
        by seqadmin


        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
