• RT-PCR and qPCR assays.

• Gene expression analysis.

• Cloning of cDNA sequences.

• Transcriptome and RNA profiling studies.

Each batch is validated for reverse transcription efficiency, absence of RNase/DNase contamination, and performance in qPCR assays.

• Use high-quality RNA to maximize cDNA yield.

• Mix oligo(dT) and random primers for broad transcript coverage.

• Store reagents in aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

• Shipment at Gel Pack.
• Storage: Upon receipt of the kit, immediately store the components at -20 °C in a freezer without a defrost cycle. It is recommended to reduce freeze-thaw cycles as less as possible.
