ResearchArticle Cites Cleanascite™ for microRNA Isolation
MONMOUTHJUNCTION, NJ, June1, 2016 -- Biotech Support Group reports on a recent research articledescribing the simplicity and efficiency of their proteomic samplepreparation technology for clearing lipids from egg yolk.
Thecitation is:
Ben Wade,Michelle Cummins,Anthony Keyburn andTamsyn M. Crowley.Isolationand detection of microRNA from the egg of chickens.BMCResearch Notes 20169:283. DOI: 10.1186/s13104-016-2084-5
Inbrief, the article’s authors report a method for the reproducibleand reliable isolation of miRNA from the albumen and yolk of chickeneggs. These methods will allow the investigation of epigeneticprogramming in chick development previously unknown, and how thisimpacts the nutritional value of eggs for human consumption. Thearticle states “…400 µlaliquots of the yolk/lysis solution was dispensed into five 1.5 mlmicrocentrifuge tubes. To each of these aliquots 600 µl ofCleanascite™ was added followed by rigorous vortexing until thesample became homogenous. The Cleanascite™ removes the lipid fromthis high fat tissue that would otherwise interfere with theextraction process…Solutions were then incubated at 4 °C for1 h.”.
“Thisis still another example of the versatility of Cleanascite™as it now shown to help purify microRNA from egg yolk, a verylipid-rich tissue type. The exquisite selectivity profile ofCleanascite™makes this possible.” states Swapan Roy, Ph.D., President andFounder of Biotech Support Group.
