Does anyone have an RNA extraction protocol for fish/salmonid sperm?

11 November 2018 1 3K Report

I'm looking to extract high quality RNA from Atlantic salmon sperm and am having difficulty finding a protocol that isn't mammal/human specific.

Dear PhD Mobley

I recommend that you use ISOGEN II protocol for your experiments. You can easily find ISOGEN II protocol on the internet.

Best regards
