Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the isolation of RNA from biological material (e.g. cells) by use of a lysis procedure and processing of the lysate to isolate RNA. More particularly, the invention involves the immobilisation of nucleic acids comprising RNA from the lysed biological material on a solid support and purification of the RNA on the support prior to elution of the RNA from the support for collection.
  • a particular aim of the present invention is to provide a process which is relatively quick and straightforward to practise and which produces RNA of high purity in good yield.
  • the invention also relates to compositions for use in the lysis procedure.
  • RNA isolated from biological material (e.g. cells) is of importance in a number of fields, e.g. research and clinical diagnosis.
  • biological material e.g. cells
  • clinical cell-containing samples from a patient may be subjected to a procedure (including the step of cell lysis) to isolate RNA which is then analysed by procedures well known in the art.
  • Such analysis may be for the purpose of identifying RNA from a particular bacterium (to determine whether or not the patient has been infected by that bacterium).
  • a method of extracting RNA substantially free from DNA from biological susceptible to lysis comprising the steps of:
  • RNA RNA
  • the isolated RNA is highly pure, there being little risk of contamination by lithium salts in view of the relatively low amounts thereof employed in the process of the invention.
  • the method of the invention results in the isolation of substantially pure and substantially intact RNA.
  • the method of the invention may be used for isolating RNA from a wide range of RNA- containing samples of biological origin.
  • the sample from which the RNA is to be isolated may be, or may comprise, cells, for example animal (including mammalian) cells, plant cells, bacterial cells, or yeast or other fungal cells.
  • the sample from which the RNA is to be isolated may be, or may comprise, one or more viruses.
  • the cells, virus(es) or other RNA-containing sample from which the RNA is to be isolated may originate from or have been present in a tissue sample or body fluids such as blood, sputum, urine or CSF In certain embodiments (e.g.

  • the lysis procedure will generally involve thoroughly admixing the biological material to be lysed with the lysis solution (e.g. by pipetting). Lysis may be effected at ambient temperature (e.g. 15°C to 25°C) without the need for additional heating.
