Notes
• For the samples, total RNA isolated from liver and kidney tissues
• For the standards, total RNA isolated from lung tissue
Note: Be sure to prepare template for both your samples and your standards.
• One of the following Applied Biosystems High-Capacity cDNA Reverse
Transcription Kits:
Note: The High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit was formerly called the
High-Capacity cDNA Archive Kit.
Prepare the
Template
Use the High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit to reverse-transcribe cDNA
from the total RNA samples. Follow the procedures in the Applied Biosystems High-
Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kits Protocol to:
1. Prepare the RT master mix.
CHEMICAL HAZARD. 10✕ RT Buffer may cause eye, skin,
and respiratory tract irritation. Read the MSDS, and follow the handling
instructions. Wear appropriate protective eyewear, clothing, and gloves.
2. Prepare the cDNA reactions.
3. Perform reverse transcription on a thermal cycler.
