Maximize Viral RNA Yield from Biological Fluid


Linear Recovery Down to 50 Copies of Transcript
With the MagMAX Viral RNA Isolation Kit, viral RNA can be quantitatively recovered from biological fluids spiked with RNA input levels ranging over 5 orders of magnitude. This was demonstrated by spiking plasma, serum, milk, and water samples with dilutions of a 466 nt HIV Armored RNA transcriptan RNase resistant, viral protein-coated RNA molecule. A titration from 50 to 4,000,000 copies of Armored RNA was added to duplicate samples for amplification. The RNA was then recovered from the sample using the MagMAX Kit, and 20% of the sample was used in qRT-PCR to detect the HIV RNA. Figure 3 shows that RNA recovery was linear over a broad range of viral concentrations, i.e. for both low and high viral titers, including samples containing as few as 50 input copies of transcript.

Figure 3. Linear Recovery of Synthetic Viral RNA from Biological Fluids. MagMAX Lysis Buffer was added to samples of water, plasma, serum, and milk, and the mixture was then spiked with a serial dilution of a 466 nt HIV Armored RNA transcript. (Armored RNA is protected from nucleases by a protein coat derived from the MS2 coat protein gene.) Viral RNA was isolated using the MagMAX-96 Viral RNA Isolation Kit. The recovered RNA was analyzed by qRT-PCR. The results demonstrate that as few as 50 input copies of transcript can be successfully detected in RNA isolated using the MagMAX Kit.
