I need protocols or procedures for extracting Mi RNA from tissues in experimental animals.
The best way to isolate miRNA is using kits. I recommend mirVana miRNA Isolation Kit from Thermo Fisher.
Hello Joshua,
Yes, miRNA from tissues in experimental animals can be isolated.
The miRNA signatures may not be the same as the ones expected obtained from human diseases.
And yes, mirVana is the best kit, if I were to be asked as well.
Warm regards,
Venk
hii >> ive used this kit InvetrogenTM / life technologies/ USA for microRNA extraction from tissue samples... with high purity and good concentration
good luck
Hi,
We played around with quite a few commercial miRNA extraction kits, and felt mirVana was by far the best, in terms of yield of miRNA.
Regards,
Radha
