Product Name RNAlater Tissue RNA Stabilization Solution
Catalog No. NATR-HMM-0149
Description An aqueous tissue storage reagent that rapidly permeates tissues to stabilize and protect cellular RNA from degradation at ambient temperature. Upon immersion, the solution inactivates endogenous RNases and precipitates RNA within intact cells, preserving the expression profile for downstream analysis. Treated samples can be stored at room temperature or refrigerated for extended periods before RNA extraction.
Intended Use Immediate stabilization and preservation of RNA expression profiles in freshly collected tissue specimens prior to extraction.
Principle / Technology RNase inactivation and RNA precipitation within intact tissue architecture
Detection Method RNA integrity assessment by Bioanalyzer or agarose gel; downstream: RT-qPCR, RNA-Seq, microarray
Sample Type Fresh animal or human tissue specimens up to 0.5 cm thickness; applicable to most solid organ and tumor tissue types
Performance Range / Specifications Full thickness penetration: approximately 0.5 cm in 24 hr at room temperature
Sensitivity / LOD Preserved RNA integrity (RIN ≥7) for at least 7 days at room temperature; up to 1 month at 4 °C
Specificity Non-selective stabilization of all RNA species including mRNA, rRNA, miRNA, and lncRNA
Reaction Conditions / Protocol Immerse tissue in 5–10 volumes of RNAlater immediately after excision; incubate overnight at 4 °C before long-term storage or direct RNA extraction
Components / Formulation RNAlater solution (aqueous ammonium sulfate-based formulation
Storage Conditions Room temperature; precipitates may form at low temperature but redissolve upon warming
Shelf Life 24 months at room temperature
Package Specifications 100 mL, 500 mL bottles
Product Form Clear to slightly yellow liquid
Quality Control RNA integrity preservation verified by Bioanalyzer RIN scores on mouse liver and spleen tissue after 7 days room temperature incubation
Key Features Eliminates the need for immediate freezing of tissue specimens in liquid nitrogen at the collection site
