Figure 1. Isolation of RNA from exosomes purified from different plasma volumes. Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Exosome and Free-Circulating RNA Isolation Mini Kit (Cat# 59500) was used to isolate Exosomal RNA from different plasma volumes ranging from 0.1 mL and up to 1 mL. Two microlitres of the isolated RNA was then used as the template in RT-qPCR reactions to assess the amplification of the isolated plasma exosomal miR-26a. (A) The plasma exosomal miR-26a is linearly decreasing with increasing the sample input volume. B) The relative amount of the plasma exosomal miR-26a shows excellent linearity with a percentage of recovery of more than 90%.
Figure 2. Isolation of Free-Circulating RNA after the isolation of Exosomal RNA from different plasma volumes. Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Exosome and Free-Circulating RNA Isolation Mini Kit (Cat# 59500) was used to isolate Free-Circulating RNA after the isolation of Exosomal RNA from different plasma volumes ranging from 0.1 mL and up to 1 mL. Two microlitres of the isolated RNA was then used as the template in RT-qPCR reactions to assess the amplification of the isolated plasma free-circulating miR-21. (A) The free-circulating miR-21 is linearly decreasing with increasing the sample input volume. B) The relative amount of the free-circulating miR-21 shows excellent linearity with a percentage of recovery of more than 90%.
Figure 3. Isolation of RNA from exosomes purified from different plasma volumes. Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Exosome and Free-Circulating RNA Isolation Midi Kit (Cat# 59600) was used to isolate Exosomal RNA from different plasma volumes ranging from 1 mL and up to 4 mL. Two microlitres of the isolated RNA was then used as the template in RT-qPCR reactions to assess the amplification of the isolated plasma exosomal miR-26a. (A) The plasma exosomal miR-26a is linearly decreasing with increasing the sample input volume. B) The relative amount of the plasma exosomal miR-26a shows excellent linearity with a percentage of recovery of more than 90%.

Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Exosome and Free-Circulating RNA Isolation Midi Kit (Cat# 59600) was used to isolate Free-Circulating RNA after the isolation of Exosomal RNA from different plasma volumes ranging from 1 mL and up to 4 mL. Two microlitres of the isolated RNA was then used as the template in RT-qPCR reactions to assess the amplification of the isolated plasma free-circulating miR-21.

Figure 5. Isolation of RNA from exosomes purified from different plasma volumes. Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Exosome and Free-Circulating RNA Isolation Maxi Kit (Cat# 59700) was used to isolate exosomal RNA from different plasma volumes ranging from 4 mL and up to 10 mL. Two microlitres of the isolated RNA was then used as the template in RT-qPCR reactions to assess the amplification of the isolated plasma exosomal miR-26a. (A) The plasma exosomal miR-26a is linearly decreasing with increasing the sample input volume. B)The relative amount of the plasma exosomal miR-26a shows excellent linearity with a percentage of recovery of more than 90%.

Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Exosome and Free-Circulating RNA Isolation Maxi Kit (Cat# 59700) was used to isolate free-circulating RNA after the isolation of exosomal RNA from different plasma volumes ranging from 4 mL and up to 10 mL.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 2 years after the date of shipment. It is recommended to warm Lysis Buffer A for 20 minutes at 60°C if any salt precipitation is observed.
Important Note
This kit is suitable for the purification of exosomes from fresh or frozen serum or plasma prepared from blood collected on either EDTA or Citrate. Plasma samples prepared from blood collected on heparin should not be used as heparin can significantly interfere with many downstream applications such as RT-PCR.
