Thermo Fisher Scientific Histogene Refill Kit, includes dehydration chemicals & stain only

Applied Biosystems™ Histogene™ Refill Kit

Includes dehydration chemicals & stain only

This kit contains only the dehydration chemicals and stain used with the ARCTURUS™ HistoGene™ LCM Frozen Section Staining Kit. Designed as a fast-penetrating stain, this kit provides excellent contrast while preserving nucleic acid integrity and retaining low-abundance mRNAs.

Key Product Features

• Optimized process—provides superior staining while preserving RNA
• Comprehensive kit—simplifies tissue staining and dehydration
• High-quality RNA yield—retains low-abundance mRNA and maintains RNA integrity
• Versatile application—obtains high-quality RNA from many tissue types
• Modular design—compatible with other ARCTURUS™ products for superior microarray data

Provide Superior Staining while Preserving Nucleic Acids

HistoGene™ Staining Solution has been developed by ARCTURUS™ to stain tissues for LCM subsequently used as sources of nucleic acids. It is a fast-penetrating stain that provides good contrast by differential staining of nuclei (purple) and cytoplasm (light pink). By minimizing tissue exposure to water where nucleases may be activated, HistoGene™ stain helps preserve nucleic acid integrity that may otherwise be compromised by longer staining protocols.

Retain Low-abundance mRNA

RT-PCR analysis of specific genes from cells captured from tissues processed using the HistoGene™ LCM Frozen Section Staining Kit shows retention of both low-abundance and high-abundance mRNA species. The mRNA profile of HistoGene™ samples appears free of degradation.

Maintain RNA Integrity

Tissues prepared for LCM using HistoGene™ reagents, supplies, and instructions yield high-quality RNA suitable for downstream applications.

Obtain High-quality RNA from Many Tissue Types

ARCTURUS™ has validated the HistoGene™ Kit by examining RNA integrity across multiple tissue types. All tissues tested to date using the HistoGene™ Kit have yielded quality RNA.

Part of the Arcturus™ System for Microgenomics

The HistoGene™ LCM Frozen Section Staining Kit is part of the ARCTURUS™ Complete System of Microgenomics and is designed to work seamlessly with other products such as:

• PicoPure™ RNA Isolation Kit – recovers high yields of RNA from as few as 10 cells
• RiboAmp™ RNA Amplification Kit – amplifies picogram quantities of RNA to microgram levels for microarray labeling and hybridization

ARCTURUS™ instruments and kits enhance reliability and reproducibility in gene expression studies.
