Samples
• Refer to the assay specific Kit Guides for maximum allowed sample and salt
concentration.
• For RNA assays: Heat denature all RNA samples and RNA ladder for
2 minutes at 70°C before use.
• For protein assays: Use 0.5 mL tubes for denaturation. Using larger tubes
will lead to poor results.
