DNA-OFF and RNase-OFF
DNA-OFF and RNase-OFF may be used in laboratory settings to eliminate DNA and RNase contamination, respectively.
DNA-OFF is a non-alkaline, non-corrosive, and non-carcinogenic cleaning solution that eliminates DNA contamination and is intended for PCR workstations. The solution contains a surfactant plus an agent that destroys DNA. DNA-OFF is stable, heat-resistant, and comes ready-to-use.
RNase-OFF is a non-alkaline, non-corrosive, and non-carcinogenic cleansing solution that is very active against RNase contamination. It contains a surfactant and an agent that inactivates RNase. RNase-OFF is stable, heat-resistant, and comes ready-to-use to eliminate RNase contamination from any surface, including the interior surfaces of microcentrifuge tubes.
More Information
Applications
- Elimination of DNA at PCR workstations (Cat. # 9036)
- Elimination of RNase (Cat. # 9037)
Storage
- Room temperature
- DNA-OFF and RNase-OFF solutions may precipitate when stored at lower temperatures. The precipitatants can be brought back into solution by incubation at 37°C.
