Description

General description

BCP can be used in place of chloroform and is less toxic. The use of BCP in the single-step TRI reagent method decreases the possibility of contaminating RNA with DNA. It does not adversely affect quality or quantity of the isolated RNA. 1-Bromo-3-chloropropane is a phase separation reagent used in protocols for isolation of nucleic acids.

Application

1-Bromo-3-chloropropane has been used in molecular biology applications for the isolation of high quality RNA from:

feline teeth
mice brain and liver tissues
human ectocervical epithelial cells
placental samples
human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs)

Features and Benefits

less toxic alternative to chloroform
compatible with TRI reagent for isolation of RNA with decreased DNA contamination

Other Notes

BCP can be used in place of chloroform, and is less toxic. The use of BCP in the single-step TRI Reagent method decreases the possibility of contaminating RNA with DNA. It does not adversely affect quality or quantity of the isolated RNA.

Protocols

Protocollo per l’uso di TRI Reagent®

TRI Reagent è un reagente che permette non solo di isolare l’RNA in un solo passaggio ma anche il DNA, l’RNA e le proteine dallo stesso campione. In questo protocollo si descrivono la preparazione dei campioni, l’estrazione dei diversi precipitati e la risoluzione dei problemi.

TRI Reagent® Protocol

TRI Reagent enables simultaneous DNA, RNA, and protein isolation with sample prep guidelines and troubleshooting.
