The MEGAclear™ Kit is designed for the quick cleanup of any large-scale transcription reaction. The MEGAclear™ Kit efficiently separates RNA from unincorporated NTPs, enzymes, and buffer components. Advantages of the MEGAclear™ Kit:

• Purifies transcription reactions to produce high-quality RNA, free of unincorporated NTPs, enzymes, and buffer components
• High recovery from 1 ng to 500 μg of input
• Ideal for purification of aRNA amplification reactions, nonisotopically labeled RNA probes, and capped RNA transcripts for oocyte injections
• Quick protocol—purify RNA in less than 30 minutes

Using the MEGAclear™ Kit
The protocol is quick and easy. The transcription reaction is mixed with Binding Solution, passed over an RNA-binding filter, and washed; an elution step releases the purified RNA, which is now ready for any application requiring highly pure synthetic or in vitrotranscribed RNA. For RNA recovery of 70% or greater, single-stranded RNA should be >100 nt and double-stranded RNA should be >200 bp.
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

How do I remove DNase from an RNA sample?

DNase can be removed by the following methods: acid phenol:choloform extraction, lithium chloride precipitation, EDTA, and heat inactivation, or using our MegaClear Transcription Clean-Up Kit (Cat. No. AM1908).

Alternatively, our Invitrogen TURBO DNA-free Kit (Cat. No. AM1907) is supplied with a DNase inactivation reagent that can be used to remove the DNase, as well as divalent cations such as magnesium and calcium, which can catalyze RNA degradation when RNA is heated with the sample.

What is the binding capacity of the MEGAclear kit filter column?

The binding capacity of the 10051G filter columns is 500µg of RNA

Can the Filter Cartridges within the MEGAclear Transcription Clean-Up Kit (Cat. No. AM1908) be ordered separately?

Yes, we do offer the Spin Cartridges (Cat. No. AM10051G) as a stand-alone product, and they would be compatible with the MEGAclear Transcription Clean-Up Kit (Cat. No. AM1908).

Can the collection tubes within the MEGAclear Transcription Clean-Up Kit (Cat. No. AM1908) be ordered separately?

Yes, the Elution Tubes (2.0 mL) (Cat. No. AM12480) are the same that are used in the MEGAclear Transcription Clean-Up Kit (Cat. No. AM1908).

What is the composition of the Elution Solution provided in the MEGAclear Transcription Clean-Up Kit (Cat. No. AM1908)?

It is 0.1 mM EDTA (pH 8.0) in nuclease-free water.
