Individual variations are low throughout the entire purification process TaqMan ® threshold-cycle values are easily achieved at the end of the process with a coefficient of variation (CV) less than 3% using the QuantiTect Probe RT-PCR Kit (see figure "Repeatability of fully automated RNA purification"). Sample sizes range from 10 to 5 x 10 5 cells (see figure "RT-PCR of RNA from as few as 100 cells"), and high-quality RNA can be purified from large numbers of samples (see figure "Reproducible yields of high-quality RNA"). The RNA is suitable for sensitive applications such as quantitative, real-time RT-PCR and microarray analysis (see figure "High-quality RNA for sensitive analysis of a low-copy transcript").

The RNeasy 96 system provides fast and reproducible total RNA purification for high-throughput gene expression profiling. Total RNA is easily purified with the RNeasy Maxi Kit from large amounts of starting material including animal or human cells, animal or human tissues, and yeast cells (see table “Total RNA yields obtained with RNeasy Kits”).

Total RNA purified with the RNeasy Maxi Kit is of high quality and is suitable for many downstream applications (see figure "High-quality RNA from a variety of samples"). The dedicated RNeasy Mini QIAcube Kit, including rotor adapters preloaded with RNeasy spin columns and elution tubes, delivers greater convenience and time savings (see figure "Significant time savings with dedicated QIAcube Kits").
