Promega AS1380 Maxwell RSC simplyRNA Blood Kit Instruction Manual

Promega AS1380 Maxwell RSC simplyRNA Blood Ki

Description

The Maxwell® RSC simplyRNA Blood Kit (a) is designed for isolation of total RNA from fresh (not frozen) whole blood collected in EDTA tubes. The simplyRNA Blood procedure purifies total RNA with minimal sample handling before automated purification on the Maxwell® RSC Instrument or Maxwell® RSC 48 Instrument. The Maxwell® RSC and Maxwell® RSC 48 Instruments are supplied with preprogrammed purification procedures and are designed for use with predispensed reagent cartridges, maximizing simplicity and convenience. The Maxwell® RSC Instrument can process up to 16 samples, and the Maxwell® RSC 48 Instrument can process up to 48 samples in about 50 minutes. The low elution volume results in concentrated high-quality RNA suitable for use in downstream applications such as quantitative
RT-PCR (qRT-PCR).

Description (continued)

The Maxwell® RSC simplyRNA Blood Kit purifies samples using a paramagnetic particle that provides a mobile solid phase that optimizes sample capture, washing and purification of nucleic acid. The Maxwell® RSC and Maxwell® RSC 48 Instruments are magnetic particle-handling instruments that efficiently bind RNA to the paramagnetic particle in the first well of a prefilled cartridge. The samples are processed through a series of washes before the RNA is eluted.
Prior to extraction, samples can be preprocessed manually or using the Maxprep™ Liquid Handler. The Maxprep™ Liquid Handler will transfer samples from primary sample tubes, perform sample lysis prior to extraction, add lysed samples to Maxwell® RSC cartridges, transfer plungers to Maxwell® RSC cartridges, and dispense elution buffer to elution tubes. Follow the instruction set specific to the preprocessing option used.

Sample Preparation

! The Maxwell® RSC simplyRNA Blood Kit can process 2.5ml of fresh whole blood per RNA isolation.

Preparation of Solutions

Mixture of 1-Thioglycerol and Homogenization Solution
A volume of 200µl of 1-Thioglycerol/Homogenization Solution mixture is needed for each sample. To prepare a working solution, add 20µl of 1-Thioglycerol per milliliter of Homogenization Solution. 1-Thioglycerol is viscous, so careful pipetting is required for accurate measurement. Alternatively, add 600µl of 1-Thioglycerol to the 30ml bottle of Homogenization Solution. Before use, chill the mixture of 1-Thioglycerol and Homogenization Solution on ice or at +2°C to +10°C.
Note: Store the mixture of 1-Thioglycerol and Homogenization Solution at +2°C to +10°C, where it is stable for up to 30 days.

DNase I Solution
Add 275µl of Nuclease-Free Water to the vial of lyophilized DNase I. Invert to rinse DNase off the underside of the cap, and swirl gently to mix; do not vortex. Add 5µl of Blue Dye to the reconstituted DNase I as a visual aid for pipetting. Dispense the DNase I Solution into single-use aliquots in 1.5ml nuclease-free tubes (such as ClickFit Microtubes, Cat.# V4741). Each purification requires 10µl of DNase I solution. Store reconstituted DNase I at –30°C to –10°C. DNase I solution maintains activity for up to 10 freeze-thaw cycles.

Preparing White Blood Cell Pellets Materials to Be Supplied By the User

• fresh (not frozen) whole blood in EDTA collection tubes
• benchtop vortex mixer
• 14ml tubes and caps (sterile; e.g., Corning Cat.# 352006)
• centrifuge with swinging-bucket rotor
• RNase-free, sterile, aerosol-resistant pipette tips
  Note: The Maxwell® RSC simplyRNA Blood Kit contains two reagents with the word lysis in their name: Cell Lysis Solution (Part# A793A, 100ml) and Lysis Buffer (Part# MC501C, 20ml). Please check that you use the correct reagent at each step.

1. Transfer 2.5ml of well-mixed fresh (not frozen) whole blood from the EDTA collection tube into a sterile
   14ml tube.

2. Add 7.5ml of Cell Lysis Solution (Part# A793A), and invert the tube 5–6 times to mix. This is a differential lysis step; the red blood cells are lysed, leaving the white blood cells intact.

3. Incubate lysates for 10 minutes at room temperature. Twice during the incubation, invert to mix.

4. Centrifuge tube at 3,000 × g for 10 minutes.

5. Remove and discard as much of the supernatant as possible without disturbing the visible white pellet. Briefly spin to collect residual liquid at the bottom of the tube, and remove and discard the supernatant with a pipette.

6. Add 200µl of chilled 1-Thioglycerol/Homogenization Solution mixture to the pellet. Mix well with a pipette or vortex or both to ensure complete resuspension of the pellet.

   • Touching the Abort button will abandon the run. All samples from an aborted run will be lost.
   • If a run is abandoned before completion, you may be prompted to check whether plungers are still loaded on the plunger bar. If plungers are present on the plunger bar, perform Clean Up when requested.
     If plungers are not present on the plunger bar, you can choose to skip Clean Up. The samples will be lost.

10. Follow the on-screen instructions at the end of the method to open the door. Verify that the plungers are located in well #8 of the cartridge at the end of the run. If the plungers are not removed from the plunger bar, follow the instructions in the Maxwell® RSC Instrument Operating Manual or the Maxwell® RSC 48 Instrument Operating Manual to perform a Clean Up process to unload the plungers.

11. Remove the deck tray(s) from the instrument. Remove elution tubes containing RNA, and cap the tubes. After the run has been completed, the extraction run report will be displayed. From the ‘Report View’ screen, you can print or export this report or both.

12. Remove the cartridges and plungers from the deck tray(s), and discard as hazardous waste following your institution’s recommended guidelines. Do not reuse reagent cartridges, plungers or elution tubes. Ensure samples are removed before performing any required UV light treatment to avoid damage to the nucleic acid.

Storing Eluted RNA

If sample eluates are not processed immediately, the eluted RNA should be stored at –20°C or –70°C for up to
24 hours in the Maxwell® Elution Tubes. If longer term storage is desired, transfer the eluted RNA into RNase-free labware that is suitable for long-term storage and store at –70°C or below. Consult the instructions for downstream applications for specific sample storage and handling recommendations.

Troubleshooting

For questions not addressed here, please contact your local Promega Branch Office or Distributor. Contact information available at: www.promega.com. E-mail: techserv@promega.com

Symptoms Low RNA yield, RNA degradation or poor reproducibility between samples

Causes and Comments

• The sample contains a low amount of RNA. The amount of RNA present in a sample depends on the metabolic state and white blood cell count.
• The blood sample was too old. Best yields are obtained with fresh blood. Samples that have been stored at 2–10°C for more than 3 days may give reduced yields. Stability of individual messages may vary.
• Use fresh blood; do not freeze the blood. For best results, do not freeze the cell pellet. However, the cell pellet resuspended in 1-Thioglycerol/Homogenization Solution mixture may be frozen.
• The wrong method was run with the Maxwell® Instrument.
• Lysis Buffer was added to whole blood instead of Cell Lysis Solution. Both red and white blood cells are lysed by Lysis Buffer, so there would be little or no pellet.
• 1-Thioglycerol was not added to the Homogenization Solution.
• Lysis Buffer was not added or was added in the wrong order.
• Lysates were not mixed sufficiently. Lysates must be mixed by vortexing for 20 seconds.

Appendix

9.A. Creating a Ribonuclease-Free Environment
Ribonucleases (RNases) are extremely difficult to inactivate. Take care to avoid introducing RNase activity into your RNA samples during and after isolation. This is especially important if the starting material was difficult to obtain or is irreplaceable. The following notes may help prevent accidental RNase contamination of your samples.

1. Two of the most common sources of RNase contamination are the user’s hands and bacteria or molds that may be present on airborne dust particles. To prevent contamination from these sources, use sterile technique when handling the reagents supplied with this system. Wear gloves at all times. Change gloves whenever ribonucleases may have been contacted.

2. Whenever possible, sterile, disposable plasticware should be used for handling RNA. These materials generally are RNase-free and do not require pretreatment to inactivate RNase.

3. Treat nonsterile glassware, plasticware and electrophoresis chambers before use to ensure that they are RNase-free. Bake glassware at 200°C overnight, and thoroughly rinse plasticware with 0.1N NaOH, 1mM EDTA, followed by RNase-free water. Commercially available RNase removal products also may be used, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
   Note: Electrophoresis chambers may be contaminated with ribonucleases, particularly RNase A, from analysis of DNA samples. Whenever possible, set aside a new or decontaminated apparatus for RNA analysis only.

4. Treat solutions not supplied with the system by adding diethyl pyrocarbonate (DEPC) to 0.1% in a fume hood. Incubate overnight with stirring at room temperature in the hood. Autoclave for 30 minutes to remove any trace of DEPC.
   Caution: DEPC is a suspected carcinogen and should only be used in a chemical fume hood. DEPC reacts rapidly with amines and cannot be used to treat Tris buffers.
   ! Note: For all downstream applications, it is essential that you continue to protect your RNA samples from RNases. Continue to wear clean gloves and use solutions and centrifuge tubes that are RNase-free.
