SMARTer® Universal Low Input RNA Kit for Sequencing

Cat.# 634938

The SMARTer Universal Low Input RNA Kit for Sequencing contains the components needed to synthesize high-quality cDNA from as little as 200 pg of RNA, and includes the Advantage 2 PCR Kit for PCR amplification and validation. The kit utilizes both SMART technology and random priming, and has been designed and validated to prepare cDNA samples for sequencing and quantification with next-generation sequencing platforms. While SMART technology offers unparalleled sensitivity and unbiased amplification of cDNA transcripts, random (universal) priming allows for amplification of damaged RNA and maintains the true representation of the original mRNA transcripts. Both of these factors are critical for transcriptome sequencing and gene expression analysis.
