GenVault has launched GenTegra RNA. GenTegraRNA is an inert chemical matrix that inactivates trace RNase in the liquid phase, providing an added level of RNA stability during sample handling, with or without ice.
The company said that in the dry-state, GenTegra preserves RNA integrity by protecting samples from hydrolysis and oxidation, imparts thermal stability at temperatures ranging from – 80 degrees C to 76 degrees C/169 degrees F and ensures quantitative recovery of RNA upon rehydration.
David Wellis, CEO of GenVault, said: “GenVault continues to innovate by providing solutions that, enable efficiency and ensure quality in biosample management for genomic-based medicine and research. We are excited to release the second product in our GenTegra line, GenTegra RNA.”
The company said that GenTegra RNA is compatible with RNA purified using any standard kit or protocol, from all sources, including blood, tissue and PAXgene. RNA may be stored in standard buffers, including water, TE citrate or EDTA. Trace carryover RNase contamination is not a concern with GenTegra RNA.
