    Product Description


    ZR Urine RNA Isolation Kit™ is an innovative product designed for the easy, reliable and rapid isolation of total RNA from cells in urine samples. The product enables isolation of cells from urine using a syringe (not provided) and a uniquely-designed syringe filter. Following separation, cells are lysed and total RNA stabilized using a specially formulated Urine RNA Buffer. The collected lysate can then be used immediately or at a later time following transportation and/or storage. Also, the Urine RNA Buffer is ideal for direct isolation of RNA from microvesicles that may be recovered from urine filtrates.
    One-step RNA isolation occurs via matrix adsorption using Zymo-Spin™ IC Columns. The RNA isolation procedure is simple and can be performed in less than 5 minutes. Use of the ZR Urine RNA Isolation Kit results in the isolation of high-quality, total RNA from urine samples that is suitable for subsequent analyses of gene expression that include RT-PCR.

    RNA was isolated from whole urine using the ZR Urine RNA kit. Researchers found that microvesicles RNA is better preserved compared to whole cells, indicating possible RNA protection during urine passage.

    The ZR Urine RNA kit was used to extract RNA from sloughed cells (5 mL urine) for downstream RT-PCR. A multiplex biomarker panel was developed for the diagnosis of transitional bladder carcinoma via a non-invasive method.

    Total RNA was extracted from freshly voided urine using the ZR Urine RNA kit for gene expression analysis. Aurora A Kinase (AURKA) mRNA was identified as a possible diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for urothelial bladder cancer.
