Ovation RNA-Seq FFPE System
The Ovation® RNA-Seq FFPE System provides a fast and simple method for preparing amplified cDNA from FFPE-derived total RNA for RNA-Seq applications (transcriptome sequencing). Amplification is initiated at the 3' end as well as randomly throughout the transcriptome in the sample, making the Ovation RNA-Seq FFPE System ideal for amplification of the severely degraded and chemically modified RNA typically obtained from FFPE samples. This approach is ideal for processing samples for RNA-Seq on Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) systems, as reads are distributed across the transcript. The Ovation RNA-Seq FFPE System is optimized for the generation of double-stranded cDNA suitable for sequencing library construction for use with a variety of NGS platforms.
The Ovation RNA-Seq FFPE System is powered by Ribo-SPIA® technology, a rapid, simple and sensitive RNA amplification process developed by NuGEN. Using Ribo-SPIA technology and starting with as little as 100 ng FFPE RNA, microgram quantities of cDNA can be prepared in approximately six hours.
The Ovation RNA-Seq FFPE System (Part No. 7150) provides optimized reagent mixes and a protocol to process eight RNA samples.
