Zymo-Seq RiboFree Universal cDNA Kit (12 preps)

Highlights Universal Depletion: Novel probe-free technology depletes rRNA from any organism. Simplest Kit: Prepare NGS-grade RiboFree cDNA from total RNA in as little as 1.75 hours. Automation Friendly: Streamlined protocol for increased scalability. Description The Zymo-Seq RiboFree Universal cDNA Kit is the simplest kit for the preparation of NGS-grade first-strand cDNA with ribosomal RNA (rRNA) depleted. This simple cDNA kit features RiboFree Universal Depletion, a novel probe-free rRNA depletion technology that depletes rRNA from any organism. The RiboFree Universal Depletion is validated across biological kingdom and phyla, including mammals, plants, and various prokaryotes, and also RNA from a wide range of sample types including cells, snap-frozen tissues, and FFPE samples. The RiboFree single-stranded cDNA produced by the kit can be used for qPCR detection, RNA-Seq library prep, and any other downstream analysis. In contrast to poly(A) enrichment methods, the RiboFree Universal cDNA Kit produces single-stranded cDNA from nearly all RNA biotypes, including full-length mRNA, mRNA with degraded poly(A) tails, long-noncoding RNA (lncRNA), intronic RNA, nucleolar RNA, etc. The cost-effective Zymo-Seq RiboFree Universal cDNA Kit has been optimized to reduce hands-on time, with all the reagents such as SPRI beads included for researchers’ convenience.
