PicoPure® DNA Isolation Kit
OPTIMIZED FOR SMALL SAMPLE RECOVERY
No purification needed
prior to PCR
Cycle thresholds for the PicoPure Kit samples were 28.9 ± 0.28 and
32.4 ± 1.35 for the column-purified samples, respectively.
Samples amplify earlier (more DNA present)
Samples amplify more consistently (less sample variation)
PicoPure RNA Isolation Kit
OPTIMIZED FOR SMALL SAMPLE RECOVERY
100μg
capacity
Total RNA
from 1 cell
Replicate samples of 1, 10, 100, and 1000 cells were microdissected using the PixCell IIe LCM
Instrument. RNA was isolated using the PicoPure RNA Isolation Kit, reverse-transcribed and subjected
to a QRT-PCR assay for GAPDH using a LightCycler (Roche). Quantifiable message can be detected
from a single cell, and the fluorescence signal is proportional to the cell number for all samples studied.

Paradise®Plus Reagent System
• The Challenge: Analysis of Archived Material
• Vast majority of biopsies are fixed in 10% formalin and paraffin-embedded
(FFPE)
ƒ Formalin-fixation
ƒ Cross-linking by aldehyde groups affects structural integrity of nucleic acids and
proteins
ƒ Best for working with DNA
ƒ Presents additional challenges when working with RNA
ƒ Paraffin processing and embedding
ƒ Extraction of nucleic acids from paraffin embedding causes degradation of RNA and
DNA
• Until recently, no method existed for gene expression array analysis of FFPE samples
• The Solution: Arcturus’ Paradise Plus FFPE Reagent System
• Gene expression studies of FFPE samples are possible
• Retrospective and prospective studies
• The Paradise Plus system is analogous to:
• HistoGene Staining,
• PicoPure RNA isolation and
• RiboAmp PLUS Amplification
… In one kit optimized for FFPE material
Paradise®Plus Product Family
• Paradise® Plus Reagent System – Gene Expression Analysis for FFPE Specimens and LCM Samples
• Paradise® Plus QC Kit
– Qualify your FFPE samples
• Paradise® Plus Quantitative Real Time PCR (qRT-PCR) Kit
– Quantify Your Genes of Interest
• Paradise® Plus Whole Transcript Reverse Transcription
(WT-RT) Reagent System
– Formulated for Real-Time PCR (RT-PCR)

Turbo Labeling™ Kit
ƒ Non-enzymatic technology for labeling of DNA or RNA for any microarray
application including Oligo, cDNA and CGH arrays
ƒ Easy protocol takes less than an hour
ƒ Allows splitting samples for comparative studies and differential labeling
ƒ Especially useful when sample needs to be amplified
ƒ
ƒ
ƒ
ƒ
Enables using natural nucleotides in the amplification process
Results in unmodified aRNA with higher yields and longer aRNA fragments
Better representation of the mRNA transcript for downstream analysis
Higher %P calls
Turbo: How it labels
ƒ Technology is based on the stable binding properties of a platinum complex
to biomolecules.
ƒ Label consists of a platinum complex, a detectable molecule and a leaving group
that is displaced upon reaction with the target
ƒ This molecule forms a coordinate bond, firmly coupling the label to the target
ƒ The label is bound to DNA or RNA by binding to the N7 position of guanine
