Testimonials from Our Customers
“ RNA extraction with the Zymo kit is simple and straight forward protocol and people who have already been using column based RNA extractions will find that this kit offers the DNase enzyme and buffers within the kit and so value for the money for the same number of samples. Even better is the genomic DNA isolation columns which is only optional in certain kits (that is sold as a separate kit with a different product number) is sold with the standard isolation protocol which is another feature I really liked. I have been isolating RNA from primary mouse and human cells for over a decade for my research work. I got introduced to this Zymo product when our lab was struggling with funding but we still could not move out of the protocols that we were already doing for many years. I have to say that Zymo product saved us a lot of money and still got reproducible good data from our work. I have become an independent investigator and currently working with a small funding. I am glad that I knew about Zymo product and continuing to use this in my experiments. I have recommended to my colleagues also. ”

“ This kit is very effective for RNA extraction from cells. It is easy to follow and allows inexperienced RNA users to get quality RNA on the first use - especially compared to phase separation. The on-column DNA digestion makes my workflow so much easier and the whole process takes less than 30 minutes. Tech support quickly answers any questions I have." ”

“ My research lab is mainly for undergraduates. We used to isolate RNA by using the phase separation technique. It was time-consuming, and my students often had to stop in the middle of the procedure. We also had issues with RNA quality associated with inconsistent pipetting of the aqueous phase. After a small accident during one RNA isolation, we made a switch. My students have been happier with the switch because of the reduced time needed for RNA isolation and fewer steps involved in the procedure. The quality of isolated RNA also improved significantly. The kit has saved time and money. ”

“ Direct-zol RNA Miniprep Plus Kits are great! I'm very satisfied with the efficiency/quickness of RNA extraction from human brain samples, especially when we need high quality RNA for quantification and sequencing. This product is extremely easy to use and provided a good purity of the extracted RNA. And finally, the technical support were very helpful and very responsive. ”

“ I am very satisfied with Zymo's Quick RNA isolation kit: the protocol is easy, quick and above all, provided good RNA quality and yield from cells isolated by FACS after tissue dissociation. This is the first kit (and cheapest one!) I tested that enables me to extract sufficient RNA from a small number (5000 cells) of a particularly delicate cell type. I really appreciate that Zymo provides free samples to test the kits before purchasing them. Besides, the customer/technical service is quick to respond and always provided useful details/recommendations for my specific experiment. ”
