FAQ-2794
What is the composition of Buffer RLT plus?
In addition to all the components included in Buffer RLT, Buffer RLT Plus — a component of RNeasy Plus Kits — also contains a proprietary blend of detergents. These detergents support the efficient binding of DNA molecules to the gDNA Eliminator column or the gDNA Eliminator plate. The exact composition of Buffer RLT Plus is confidential. Buffer RLT Plus can be purchased separately (cat. no. 1053393).

RNeasy Universal Kits
The RNeasy Plus Universal Mini Kit integrates fast, convenient RNA purification with effective elimination of genomic DNA. Optimized protocols enable purification of high-quality RNA from any type of tissue, even difficult-to-lyse tissues. The kit includes QIAzol Lysis Reagent for lysing fatty tissue and other types of tissue and RNeasy spin columns for purifying high-quality RNA. The RNeasy Plus Universal Mini Kit can be automated on the QIAcube Connect. The RNeasy 96 Universal Tissue Kit enables total RNA purification in 96-well format from any tissue. Tissues are efficiently lysed and homogenized in QIAzol Lysis Reagent, and high-quality RNA is purified using silica-membrane RNeasy 96 plates. Manual purification is carried out using the QIAGEN Centrifuge 4-16KS and, optionally, the QIAvac 96 vacuum manifold. Automated purification using the related RNeasy 96 Universal Tissue 8000 Kit is performed on the BioRobot Universal System. Tissue samples can be conveniently stabilized using Allprotect Tissue Reagent, and efficiently disrupted using the TissueLyser II. Nonfatty tissues can be stabilized using the RNAprotect Tissue Reagent.
Buffer RLT Plus
Buffer RLT Plus is as a lysis buffer for lysing cells and tissues before RNA or RNA/DNA isolation. It is for use with the RNeasy Plus Micro Kit, RNeasy Plus Mini Kit, RNeasy Plus 96 Kit, AllPrep DNA/RNA Micro Kit, and AllPrep DNA/RNA Mini Kit.
RNeasy Plus Kits
RNeasy Plus Kits are next generation QIAGEN RNA extraction kits, combining high-quality RNA purification with effective gDNA removal with unique gDNA Eliminator columns or plates. Total RNA of high purity and yield is obtained from a wide range of cultured cells and easy-to-lyse tissues. The RNeasy Plus Micro Kit is specially designed for limited amounts of samples and isolates up to 45 µg pure total RNA The RNeasy Plus Mini Kit purifies up to 100 µg total RNA (>200 nt) from a single extraction with efficient gDNA removal. Both kits can be automated on the QIAcube Connect and samples can be conveniently stabilized using RNAprotect Tissue Reagent or Allprotect Tissue Reagent and efficiently disrupted using a TissueRuptor II or TissueLyser II or LT system (available separately). The RNeasy Plus 96 Kit is for high-throughput purification of total RNA from cultured cells grown in 96-well plates.
