Applied Biosystems™ RNase Inhibitor, 2000 U, 20 U/μL, 100 Rxns

The Applied Biosystems™ RNase Inhibitor is a high-quality recombinant ribonuclease inhibitor enzyme designed to protect RNA molecules from degradation during RNA-based molecular biology workflows. With a molecular weight of approximately 50 kDa, this enzyme specifically inhibits RNase activity without affecting DNA or enzymatic reactions involving DNA, ensuring optimal preservation of RNA integrity during sensitive applications such as reverse transcription, RNA sequencing, and RT-PCR.

RNA is highly susceptible to degradation by ubiquitous RNases present in laboratory environments, reagents, and biological samples. This RNase inhibitor binds tightly to RNases and effectively blocks their activity, preventing RNA template degradation and ensuring accurate downstream analysis. Its lack of DNase or endonuclease activity makes it especially suitable for applications requiring high RNA purity and integrity.

Supplied at a concentration of 20 U/μL, the enzyme provides reliable performance across multiple reactions and is sufficient for approximately 100 reverse transcription reactions, making it an essential reagent in molecular biology, genomics, transcriptomics, and RNA sequencing workflows.
